Watch worship from Oct. 3, 2021, as we live into The Upside-down Reign of God
The values of God’s way turn a broken world right side up again. Each of these stories from Mark 10 reveal a different way that God inverts the dominant culture and invites us to live a life “upside down.” Shocking reversals lead to true discipleship.

Oct 3 – Where Children Are Blessed
Today’s gospel combines a saying that makes many of us uncomfortable with a story we find comforting. Jesus’ saying on divorce is another of his rejections of human legislation in favor of the original intent of God’s law. Jesus’ rebuke of the disciples who are fending off the children should challenge us as well. What does it mean to receive the kingdom of God as a child does?

And also… we welcomed Pastoral Intern Carrie Stiles, began 225 days of Remembering the Children, bless animals, welcomed marathoners & their fans in Peace Garden all morning.
