"A Spirit of Adoption" - Acts 2:1–4, Galatians 4:1–7

from Calvary Presbyterian Church San Francisco · host Calvary Presbyterian Church San Francisco

The story of Pentecost is a story of adoption. God takes strangers and makes them family. And while adoption is good news for those of us who experience it, that good news doesn't make it easy. God brings strangers together and makes them family, but God doesn't make us all the same. We are adopted into God's family with all of our differences and our disagreements. How can we celebrate the differences between us, rather than using them as wedges to divide us?The sermon was delivered by Rev. Marci A. Glass on Pentecost Sunday, June 8, 2025.The scripture readings were from Acts 2:1–4 and Galatians 4:1–7.
