About the Sermon

After writing the longest of all of his theological discourses and several chapters of instructive application, Paul brings his letter to the Romans to a conclusion in chapters 15 and 16. In verses 14-33 of chapter 15, he reviews his ministry to that point, explains his future goals and asks for help from the church at Rome. Those verses give us marvelous insight into Paul’s thinking and help us shape our goals for HBC’s engagement with world missions.

About the Series

Our normal course of preaching is to work through books of the Bible. However, from time to time we take a break from this pattern and preach a single sermon from another part of the Bible. Here are some of those sermons, including sermons from guest preachers.
