Wellington Heights Community Church

God surveyed His entire creation and declared it "very good." Among all His creatures, He specially crafted humans in His own image.

In today's sermon, Pastor Keeyon hones in on the distinctiveness of humanity, exploring how this uniqueness can sometimes lead to conflict.

We will conclude by discussing our calling love one another, even amid disagreements.

On this Embodiment Sunday, check out the podcast as Pr. Keeyon expands on love being the foundation of the journey of reconciliation. Together as a community, may we embody love for one another even when it is difficult.

After listening spend some time in sacred curiosity in how you may embody rest, connection and embodiment of love in practical ways to someone.

We are beginning a new sermon series, Reconcile: Turning toward God and one another. Throughout this series, we will explore how scripture can guide us in both contemplation and action, as we align ourselves with God's reconciling presence at work in our everyday lives and the world around us. Today, we focus on how love is the foundation of reconciliation, drawing from 1 Corinthians 13

Dr. King's Sermon: "Loving Your Enemies"

Martin Luther King Jr. 'Love Your Enemies' November 17, 1957

The journey of reconciliation is precisely that—a journey toward restoration and wholeness. This sermon series will guide us in staying grounded by addressing the current challenges we face, while also embracing a prophetic imagination to live into the new reality of God’s vision of shalom.

32 “If you love those who love you, why should you be commended? Even sinners love those who love them. 33 If you do good to those who do good to you, why should you be commended? Even sinners do that. 34 If you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, why should you be commended? Even sinners lend to sinners expecting to be paid back in full. 35 Instead, love your enemies, do good, and lend expecting nothing in return. If you do, you will have a great reward. You will be acting the way children of the Most High act, for he is kind to ungrateful and wicked people. 36 Be compassionate just as your Father is compassionate.

This Fall we are taking a deep dive into our core value of Reconciliation with the Reconcile: Turn Toward God and One Another sermon series and the Empowered to Repair book study. This brief conversation offers clear vision of reconciliation and prompts for us to consider in the journey ahead. Listen in.
