SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, September 1, 2024

Dear Friends in Jesus –

The British theologian G. K. Chesterton writes about the joy of God's unending act of creation in his great book Orthodoxy. He muses that God says to the rising sun every morning, "Do it again!" And so when our work may involve seemingly endless routine, we need to find the joy that lurks beneath even the most menial tasks. Many have imagined what it might be that makes for a happy life, often distilling it down to a few essentials: something to do, someone to love, something to hope for. Chesterton suggested that “thanks are the highest form of thought, that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.”

This Sunday is Labor Day – let’s look at what we get to do!

Glad to be home –
