The Rev. Kathryn Ransdell recently left the staff of First United Methodist Church of Dallas and moved to Canada. Her husband had found a new job there.

But before she left, Ransdell preached a sermon on health care, and it won first place in a new “health justice” sermon contest put on by Texas Impact.

The Rev. Mary Spradlin of St. Stephen United Methodist Church in Arlington finished second (with an Austin pastor) in a “health justice” sermon contest put on by Texas Impact. She graciously provided a text of the sermon, which you’ll find here.
