Sermon: “Keeping the Faith: Living a Storied Life”
Scriptures: Micah 6:1-8; Matthew 5:1-12
We have in our passages for this Sunday a couple of sermons, one by the prophet Micah and the other by Jesus the Christ. These words have been important markers for what it means to be a people of faith. What is especially interesting to me is how they are meant to speak to people who are not doing so well; people who are feeling in despair about the world and their place in it. Maybe there’s a Word to us in the midst of our personal stories, and also our common stories.
Join us for worship on Sunday, February 2nd at 10:30 a.m. as we celebrate Communion, and for coffee and fellowship after the service.
