Explore the fascinating intersection between Chicago the Musical and Jeremiah’s potter imagery in this thought-provoking sermon. McPherson First UMC’s Pastor Andrew Conard, who plays Billy Flynn in the local production, reveals how Chicago’s characters mirror our tendency to manage appearances rather than pursue authentic change. Discover how “Cell Block Tango,” “When You’re Good to Mama,” “Roxie,” and “Razzle Dazzle” expose our human patterns of blame-shifting, transactional relationships, and image management. Meanwhile, Jeremiah 18 offers God’s alternative: genuine transformation through the patient hands of the divine potter. Learn practical ways to move from performance to authentic spiritual growth.
