Amanda Sermon

Hard problems that don’t have easy answers require that we work together.

Amanda talks about a scripture she loves - Acts 2, “the church in a snow globe.” People come in and they grow and they grow, and other people see what’s happening and want to come and be a part of it.

Life inside the church can be more complicated today. We want clear, concise answers, but we live inside a life that’s a little gray.

Hard problems that don’t have easy answers require that we work together, but they lead us to great places. When we have to work together we learn to love one another.

Acts 2:38-47

2 Corinthians 3:12-18

Look at the flowers of the field - God will take care of them, God will take care of you.

If we trust Him with everything that we’ve got, we’re invited to another life altogether.

Jesus invited Peter to get out the boat and join him. How do we get out of the boat, too?

As Amanda looks back at the early days of the pandemic, she thinks of an example of something she learned from the a visit to the San Jacinto Monument:

Look out not just for the big moments, but the smaller ones.

As we get back to basics, Andy focuses on what he finds most crucial: love of God and love of neighbor. It helps us to do the right thing, which is not always easy to know.

On the eve of MLK Jr. Day, Andy reads from Charles Allen’s autobiography, as he came to terms with the racism he encountered in every day life, and the ways he needed to grow to be able to fight it.

We are still a church that fights. And we have many battles left in front of us.
