Description

In this free chapel sermon from the beginning of Lent in Winter 2015, Iain Provan reflects on the apparent harshness of Jesus' exclusive claims. Leaning on Deut. 6, John 14, and stories of the stunning Scottish mountain terrain, Provan invites us to consider how Jesus' words are a mercy to us in a world confused about the most basic realities.
