Scripture includes: Philippians 3:4-14
Rev. Dr. Libby Grammer will preach a sermon entitled, “What Really Matters”
Once we believe in Christ, many things that mattered before start to fall away because we recognize in ourselves something – someone – greater than our imperfections, greater than our brokenness, greater than all the things that separate us from the perfect love of God and keep us from loving our neighbors as ourselves. The Apostle Paul had quite a story to tell about this kind of change and what its history meant for his present and future. Do we?
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.
