Both of my sermons yesterday seemed to go well. For the youth sermon, I focused on the reading from Genesis and used it as a chance to remind/teach about the 2 creation stories, that Adam and Eve are in the second one, the one that people use to explain why the world is bad. But in yesterday's creation story, we see God creating with great happiness and declaring everything good, which is how God feels about us.
My adult sermon wove together Trinity Sunday and the Feast Day of the Visitation. I decided to go that direction as I contemplated how many Trinity Sunday sermons I might preach in my life and how rarely the Sunday will fall on May 31.
You can view the recording of most of the sermon here on my YouTube channel. If you'd like to read along/instead, I posted the manuscript here on my theology blog.
