This Sunday, we continue our series on The Sacred Journey that is the Christian faith.
Last Sunday, we celebrated the beauty of what it means to encounter God. It is such an amazing thing that God desires to be close to us! In God's presence we are called to worship; we are aware of our brokenness; we are healed in by his Word and in communion with him; and we are sent into the world with a new vocation (as fishers of people).
This Sunday, we look at what happens when we are challenged by that thing to which we have been called. After all, the Sacred Journey is not just one of many other paths; it is completely counter-intuitive. It is revolutionary!
Specifically, we have chosen the path of dependence rather than independence (Jeremiah 17:5-10). We have chosen the reality of resurrection, even when the world says that is not a thing (1 Corinthians 15:12-20). We have chosen a path which leads blessing for those who are hurting now and woe to those who have trusted in the ways of of a broken world (Luke 6:17-26).
