SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, February 6, 2022

Dear Friends in Christ –

Now there are some who may have noticed that last week’s sermon was ‘A Place to Belong’. Let’s chalk this up to print schedules. The further I went into the message, I realized we should establish first that Everybody Belongs. We looked to the 25th chapter of Matthew as Jesus prepares his disciples for the life before them without him. He presents those who obey the mandate through both testaments to care for the poor, hungry, cold and imprisoned who were then invited into the favor of their Lord. The others who cared only for themselves weren’t invited in. There was still work for them to do, spiritual growth, longing to be vessels of God’s love. I offered that they weren’t loved less and they were not beyond God’s reach.

Should they walk through the doors of Second Church they would be welcomed to share the grace offered here - in this place of belonging. Let us worship together. Then let us stride into the creation called good to be agents of reclamation and promise and hope.

In great anticipation and great joy in being your pastor –
