November 23: The Sunday of Christ the King
This coming Sunday is the last Sunday after Pentecost. It is called Christ the King and is the last Sunday of the liturgical year before the new year begins on November 30 with the Advent season.
The sermon this Sunday will be on Christ as King on his terms, as opposed to: “Perceiving then that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, Jesus withdrew again to the mountain by himself” (John 6:15). And the related hymns we’ll sing are:
Rejoice, the Lord is King
Rejoice, Ye Pure in Heart!
Crown Him with Many Crowns
