Sermon: God With Us Means Every Life Matters

Sermon from January 25, 2015 by Rev. Dr. Bill Lyons.

Excerpts from this sermon:

"The Holocaust was the systematic, bureaucratic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of" 16-20 million human beings by the Nazi regime and its collaborators. Holocaust is a word of Greek origin meaning “sacrifice by fire.” The Nazis, who came to power in Germany in January 1933, believed that Germans were “racially superior” and deemed “inferior,” anyone (the Jews, Blacks, political dissenters, Poles, Russians, Ukranians, Czechs, Roma, physically and mentally disabled, priests and religious, Jehovah's Witnesses, and gay and lesbian people) anyone who did not conform to their definition of the German racial community and classified them "an alien threat. 

"Those who survived the death camps tell their stories and keep alive the memories of the victims so that "it will never happen again." Listen to the whole sermon to find out why Rev. Dr. Lyons wonders if it ever stopped.
