Regardless of what you think of the monarchy no one can deny that Queen Elizabeth is a remarkable woman. Not only is she the longest serving monarch in history but she has lived through more change than any other royal and managed to handle it surprisingly well.

The Queen has created a role for a brand of strong, gentle leadership that didn’t seem to exist before she demonstrated it with poise and resilience. Throughout it all, the Queen has acknowledged that her faith in Jesus has been a significant source of strength amidst the gruelling demands and pressures of this role that was thrust upon her.

Listen to this sermon to hear an examination of the Queen’s faith and how her take on following Jesus speaks to us now.
