Plans for Justice (9 AM)

    The recent death of George Floyd and subsequent protests around the world have brought issues of racial injustice into focus--and with good reason. What does Scripture say about systemic racism? Join us for worship and conversation with Ben James and his daughter, Rose Marie, as they offer their perspectives as people of color in today's world. Together, we'll seek the understanding and hope needed to unravel systemic racism from the fabric of society.

     Sometimes it feels like the world is falling apart. Living in the midst of a pandemic, most of us know this feeling all too well.Our tightly-knit plans unravel and we’re left with only loose threads. What do we become when our identity or the path we’re on comes undone?

    But what if our fears don’t become our reality? Is it possible that in our unraveling, we might come face-to-face with unexpected hope, joy and love; a new beginning we couldn’t ever have imagined? Sometimes we need God to unravel us, for we need or even long to be changed.

    This Easter season, we will explore biblical accounts of unraveled shame, identity, fear, grief, dreams, and expectations. Together, we’ll see that God can meet us in our spiraling, unraveling our plans—and us—into something new.
