SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, March 29, 2020

Dear Friends in Christ – 

Here we are at Week 2 of our mandate to keep safe distance, Week 1 of Spring, and Week 5 of Lent. Of what? Oh, Lent – that mandated time to reflect on those things within each of us that block our best service to the realm of God. Those things that hold us back from our inheritance as Jesus’ own. It seems so distant, but there are still so many other issues too, like food, jobs, illnesses unrelated to COVID19, and the viability of small businesses.

In the Sermon Series on "One Anothering”, we looked at the rightness of embracing the reality of life, the "is"-ness of life, the necessity to build up each other and God’s church. Last week we went off the path and looked at the fact that each day is under God’s purview – the festival and the funeral. 

This Sunday we’ll engage the Lectionary narrative – the raising of Lazarus. And we‘ll heed Paul’s exhortation to the Ephesians in the 5th chapter – "Redeem the time …”.  Make the most of this time, even in the time of COVID19. 

Invite a friend, someone across the country whom you haven’t seen, it seems, forever. Engage God’s word and savor God’s favor even in these times –

Stay home, stay healthy and let’s flatten the curve! Sermon videos will be posted online for 10:30 a.m. on Sundays as we worship together from home.
