For Sunday, March 15, 2009

Exodus 20:1-17 (The 10 Commandments.)
Psalm 19 (The heavens are telling the glory of God.)
1 Corinthians 1:18-25 (God's foolishness is wiser than human wisdom.)
John 2:13-22 (Jesus clears the temple.)

Sunday Bulletin Service Theme: Beautiful Law.

Sermon: The Way of Obedience.

Inspired by Psalm 25, the sermons for this season of lent will focus on the "ways" of God, with an emphasis on the plural. In the long history of God's relationship with us, God is always making a way for us toward union with God. The covenant stories of our scriptures can be viewed as examples of these pathways to God.
The way of obedience is one way. The law was given to the people so that it would go well for them, it was given as a gift, not as a burden.
