SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, April 24, 2022
Dear Friends in Christ –
Jesus came that we might have life and have life in abundance, and during Lent we imagined what that would look like. Not just that we would not know want, but that we would know abundant joy, generosity, holy purpose, growing ever closer to Jesus by proclaiming the gospel, caring for God’s creation, preserving truth, heartfelt worship, promoting social righteousness, and living like we mean it for all the world to see! Basking in God’s delight!
We looked at the resurrection as the pivotal moment in the cosmos. Some described it as a second "Big Bang," as life springing forth!
This coming Sunday, Easter II, is often known as Low Sunday. No mystery here. Lower energy, lower attendance. But I don’t buy it, I won’t! It’s also Doubting Thomas Sunday each year where we can imagine ourselves as believers from the get go and not as crass as Thomas who demanded visual proof. The narratives we return to each year beg us to see things in fresh ways, through resurrection eyes.
Tomorrow we celebrate Susan Ragsdale King’s life. Sunday we remind ourselves why we live in hope in the midst of wars, fires, floods and folly. Annual meeting of the congregation. Quarterly meeting of the Deacons. Growing closer to Jesus –
