New Sermon Series begins Wednesday, March 5.
Many of us have been taught to think dualistically. We learn at an early age that everything has an opposite dark/light, good/evil, night/day, down/up. And in understanding opposites, we sometimes forget that God is everywhere (Psalm 139:7-12). God created all things and called them good (Genesis 1:25). God placed God’s own image in each human life and called us very good (Genesis 1:26-31).
Come this season of Lent (March 5 – April 19, 2025), to consider the ways that God moves in the spaces in between. In our polarized world, come seeking connection. In a world that seeks to define us as just one thing, come to find the God who made you whole and who is continuously creating within us. Come to deepen faith and to be sent out to love God and neighbor.
