Thoughts:
Our Scriptures have spoken to us, and our lives ought to speak
back. That's how we love our religions, challenge them, care for them,
transform them, and help them deliver their promises to the world.

This Week's Message
Rev C
"A Unique Mother"
Luke 1:46-55 |
Here's Something To Think About...
We are often taught that understanding God's will in our
lives and doing it is a matter of following the rules, keeping
tradition, doing the right thing (as defined for us by others) in the
right way and at the right time. How we can know what God's will is in
our lives and how we can then follow God's leadership. I believe that
knowing and following God's will has more to do with our relationships
than with rules, regulations, or theologies. God leads us by giving us
relationships with people who guide us with their wisdom, their care,
their love and their kindness. God calls upon us to be and do the same
for others. We are spiritually healed, not according to the rules we
have been taught to follow, but by trusting someone who stands beside
us in love.
