A New Space, A New Day – Aug. 8, 2021

August 9, 2021

Scripture: Psalm 66

This Sunday marked the first time meeting in person since March 2020, and the first time together at Shepherd’s Hall, where we are sharing space with Church of the Good Shepherd in downtown Raleigh.

The congregation listens to Melissa preaching up front in the fellowship hall.

As people who are trying to follow the teachings of Jesus, we don’t have to make the kingdom of God happen. We already participate in the love that comes before us and resonates out, inviting people out of hopelessness to hope, from despair into joy. We join up with what God has been doing all along.

Many wonderful things have taken place since we last worshipped in person together at Fletcher Academy. But many difficult and frustrating things have happened as well. In the midst of it all, as we journey together, God is present.
