October 02, 2023 Unsurpassable Graciousness
Preacher: Dr. Donna Claycomb Sokol, Pastor
Scripture: Exodus 17:1-7
Our journey with the Israelites continues on this week as the whole congregation faces another challenge, cries out to God in their distress, and has their needs met. The location of the miracle is renamed Massah and Meribah "because the Israelites quarreled and tested the Lord, saying, 'Is the Lord among us or not?'" How often do we want to ask a similar question? How do we know God is with us?

September 25, 2023 Look for Manna
Preacher: Dr. Donna Claycomb Sokol, Pastor
Scripture: Exodus 16:2-15
We know God to be faithful. And yet, when something does not turn out the way we hoped it would, when the route is not straightforward, or when there is not enough, we grumble and ask where God is. What if we instead sought to see God’s presence and power all around us—in the ordinary, mundane aspects of everyday life? What if the miracle of manna continues to fall every single day?

August 28, 2023 Do Not Miss the Miracle
Preacher: Rev. Donna Claycomb Sokol, Pastor
Scripture: Exodus 1:8-2:10
In his book, The Four Pivots: Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves, Shawn Ginwright suggests that the most important question we need to ask ourselves is “How do I have to be as a human being for someone else to be free?” We regularly read the book of Exodus as a narrative of God’s faithfulness to Israel, a faithfulness that enabled God’s chosen people to be set free from bondage. What if we instead sought to mine this text for lessons in liberation today—lessons that may challenge some of our previously held beliefs or understandings while calling us to embody deeper levels of compassion and faithfulness?
