Detail

The “Nunc Dimittis” – sometimes called the Song of Simeon, sometimes referred to as “Peaceful Dismissal” – is a part of the Christian liturgy that occurs near the end of the worship service. While a dismissal can seem like the end of something, Pastor Johann in this message talks about how the Nunc Dimittis applies to our everyday lives as well: It’s OK to doubt; Joy comes in the waiting; Share your light with others. Be God’s gift to others this very week.
