Heavenly Heartburn

This sermon explores the concept of 'heavenly heartburn,' a spiritual zeal ignited by the exposition of Scripture, using the encounter of Jesus with the disciples on the road to Emmaus as its primary text. The message contrasts the physical discomfort of indigestion with the divine fire that arises when believers engage deeply with God's Word, identifying this engagement as the necessary foundation for a passionate faith. It emphasizes that this fire is not merely intellectual but personal and consuming, transforming coldness and unbelief into a burning desire for God. The sermon concludes by highlighting the contagious nature of this spiritual heat, urging believers to share their testimony and encourage others, just as the disciples immediately returned to Jerusalem to proclaim the risen Christ.
