What do we know about God, and how do we know it? The Hebrew scriptures teach us that God is Creator of heavens and earth, that God sent a flood to wash the earth clean from evil, and that God gave the Promised Land to God’s people. Taken literally, these teachings can be problematic. The Hebrew Bible also contains some of the most beautiful poetry ever written about God (e.g., Psalm 42). The New Testament teaches us that God sent Jesus to reveal God’s kingdom, that God is concerned with all people, especially the poor, that God is love, and that God is still speaking to teach and remind us how to be God’s people in the world.
This Sunday, September 7, 2014 at 9:30 a.m., we kick off our fall series on Evolving Church by exploring our ideas and beliefs about God. Our confirmands-to-be will be with us in church, beginning their confirmation journey. We will welcome our new pastoral intern, Lora East, and celebrate the sacrament accompanied by the SHPC Singers. Our texts will be Psalm 42, 1 John 4:7-8, and John 14:15-27.
