Can These Bones Live? (9 AM)

    The Hebrew scriptures repeatedly challenge our ideas of who God is and how God interacts with humanity. At times, the activity ascribed to God just doesn't make sense to us. But then again, our words and actions don't always align with the will of God either.... The good news is that God's arms are always outstretched to welcome us home, regardless of what we've done or left undone. Join us as we consider the metaphor of the cistern, shared by the prophet Jeremiah, which reminds us who and where our true source of life and refreshment is.

    Series Information

    Throughout the Hebrew Bible, we’ve read about the doubts, temptations, mistakes and violence of God’s people, followed by the forgiveness God inevitably grants them. It has begun to feel like an endless cycle; a playlist on repeat.

    Here’s the thing: we continue to select the same songs today! Why is it so hard for us to change our ways?

    Join us for a new sermon miniseries, Are We Listening?, as we consider how different life might sound if we tune our ears to the will of God.
