SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, April 3, 2022
Dear Friends in Christ –
This is the Fifth Week of Lent, which marks our fifth engagement of the Six Great Ends of the Church, a statement of purpose for the community of God’s people. Proclamation, Nurture, Worship, Truth and Justice.
A few years ago a talk show host suggested you should ask your church authorities, “are you down with this social justice thing?” If they were to say, "yeah, we’re all in on this social justice thing," then, the radio host said, listeners ought to run and flee that church and report them. He went on to declare that social justice has the same philosophy as the Nazis and Communists. How sad. How dangerous.
Well, we’re doin’ justice.
The people of God are to promote Social Justice – caring for, equipping, and loving all of God’s people. We are down with dynamic, biblical social justice that leads to the dignity and worth of all. And we are down with loving God’s own as Jesus commanded. Let’s pray that someone comes into our worship and leaves to report that we are down with Jesus, down with God’s justice.
See you in worship. We’ll celebrate communion, the SPK kids will sing, and our spirits will be lifted.
This Lenten season we are exploring joy through sermon and study.
Rev. Darwin will lead us through the Six Great Ends of the Church as we explore the great joy of doing church together in our sermon series Doin' Church.
Please worship from home if you are exhibiting any COVID-like symptoms, are aware of an exposure, or have been asked by a school or other institution to quarantine or isolate.
