Holding Onto Grace

What does a set of handrails have to do with the Gospel? At first glance, not much. Yet in this sermon, we discover how something as ordinary as two pieces of steel can become a parable of God’s welcome. On the day our church cut the ribbon to celebrate new handrails at the front steps, we turned to Luke 13:10–17, where Jesus heals a woman who had been bent over for eighteen years. Her story raises questions for us today: do we truly see those on the margins, do we make space for others, and who are we holding up when they grow weary?
