Season: A Season of Resurrection - Life in Our Cells

Speaker: Tammy Werron and others

Location: 3800 Marlton Pike

About Talk: Our friend Tammy’s cell told their stories to each other using old pictures and it bonded them together in a special way. They discovered that God had planted some themes in their stories that they wanted to share with us. Each member shared about these themes. They were Vulnerability (Jenny), Faithfulness (Tammy), Courage (Jesus), Honesty (Gwyneth), Commitment (Donna), Resilience (Sarah). The cell working together was a demonstration of how we can see ourselves and the world better. We have each other to help us along.

Season: Good Storytelling

Speaker: Joshua Grace

Location: 2007 Frankford Ave.

About Talk: The past can root us and prevent postmodern drift. Stories like parables of Jesus keep the Spirit’s content bubbling up new possibilities in us. Unforgiveness keeps the wounds of the past close and locks up wisdom. Retreat offers opportunity for reflection that can mine our sense of belonging to God and creation. When you hear a Good story and internalize its meaning, how does your telling of it change in our context?

Season: A Season of Resurrection - Life in Our Cells

Speaker: Nicole Jordan

Location: 3800 Marlton Pike

About Talk: Our friend Nicole experienced transformation via cells and now she leads on in Collingswood, NJ. She became a Christian and she wasn’t even sure how it happened. She realized that God had made her and was making her into a beautiful thing and that was powerful. The slow process of composting which is mostly just waiting was the best analogy. It requires some attention but it is not instant. Cells are like well tended compost bin. They break down our dead stuff into “black gold”—dirt that is really good for growing beautiful things. She shared the experience of many of her cell mates to illustrate how this is happening in real life and not just in the metaphor.
