As we continue reading the Book of Revelation as a book of resistance, we encounter a story of a woman who gives birth in space, while a dragon waits to eat the baby. Hopefully, none of our own birth stories are that dramatic. 

But there are days, and sometimes years, when life comes at you in ways other than you predict, or would choose, or can control. We think we’re doing what we’re supposed to be doing, being good Christian people, and then a funny thing happens on the way to the hospital and you’re giving birth in space. With dragons. 

What does resistance look like in the face of the situations we can't control and wouldn't choose?

The sermon was delivered by Rev. Marci A. Glass on Sunday, July 6, 2025.

The scripture reading was from Revelation 12:1-6, 13-17.
