Scripture includes: 2 Samuel 1:1, 17-27
Rev. Dr. Libby Grammer will preach a sermon entitled, "God Saves"
David’s grief for Saul and Jonathan was genuine, and by living through his grieving, he was able to move into his role as king. Where are we choosing to live into our griefs and burdens, and where are we failing to do so? God can and will help us not only survive, but thrive. Even through our grieving, God saves.
This is the season after Pentecost in the Christian year. Having celebrated the “birthday of the church” through the giving of the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost, we enter the Season after Pentecost for 24 weeks, to celebrate the existence of the church and recall her mission in the world. The liturgical color for the season is green, symbolic of the church’s growth and mission.
Summer Sermon Series: God is at Work-Expect the Unexpected. This Summer, we are exploring stories from the Hebrew Bible in 1 & 2 Samuel. In re-reading these biblical narratives of Samuel and David who find themselves in God’s plan in unexpected ways, may we find our own unexpected places in God’s narrative for our lives.
