Intergenerational: Nobody Fits the Stereotype

Like Nathanael, who almost missed the opportunity to follow Jesus because he thought Jesus came from the wrong neighborhood, we can miss meaningful relationships with others if we let our biases or stereotypes dictate our perspective. One of the most commonly held biases concerns how we view and treat people from a different generation than our own. But, as Philip told Nathanael to “come and see,” we, too, can look past the stereotypes to see one another. Sermon based on John 1:43-51 The Voice.
