REST – do people do that in DC?
Rest, the fifth spiritual practice in the Way of Love series, has been identified as the most difficult practice for the majority of Episcopalians in our area. Rest, though, is a priority for God and should be a priority for us.
Turn – Go Deep and Return to the Way of Jesus
This week in our Way of Love preaching series, we examine “turn”: to pause, listen, and choose to follow Jesus. Choosing to follow Jesus doesn’t just happen once, but over and over again when we stray from the path of Jesus in our weakness. Luke 5:1-11.
Go – Cross Boundaries and Listen Deeply
The Way of Love series continues with the spiritual practice of “Go” that calls us out of our comfort zones to sit at someone else’s table and receive what is laid before us. Luke 10:1-9 and 2 Corinthians 5:16-21
Worship – Same Time, Same Place
The third sermon in the Way of Love series explores Worship and the grounding that this time together each week brings to the living of our faith. Here’s a link to our resources page for The Way of Love series.
Learn – The Words of God are Living and Active
In our second sermon in our Way of Love sermon series, we explore the theology and practicalities of Learn: reading and reflecting daily on Scripture, especially the teachings and life of Jesus. Heb. 4:12-16, Mt. 13:44-53 Here’s a link to our resources page for The Way of Love series.
Introducing the Way of love
Jesus’ baptism in Luke lifts up the work of the Holy Spirit. The first sermon of the Way of Love series reflects on the ways we live out our baptism and engage the Spirit in our lives. Here’s a link to our resources page for The Way of Love series.
Your Pathway to the Manger
Like the Magi, we make our own pathway to the manger. Starting with little faith or much faith, we follow our own stars, ask our own questions, bring our own gifts, as we seek the child, the King of the Jews. Mt. 2:1-12
