Death & Hope ("Grounded" 7/8)
from Yes! We're Open: Living Faith with Needham UCC · host The Congregational Church of Needham
"They hung on the stranger's every word. As the day and their journey drew to a close, they couldn’t stand to let him go, so they asked him to stay for dinner. But still they didn’t recognize him. They felt the presence of the holy with them, reframing their questions, shifting their thinking, drawing them out of their old lives and opening the door to another, better way, but they didn’t have a name for it. 'Were not our hearts burning inside us?'" (Luke 24:13-35)Lent is a season in the life of the church for reflection, when we intentionally sift our lives, all that we do and leave undone, looking to build upon all that is life-giving, for ourselves and our neighbors, and leave behind all that is not. It's a time to sink our roots deeper into God's good soil and grow from there. It's time to get "Grounded."The Congregational Church of Needham strives to be a radically Inclusive, justice-seeking, peace- making, love-affirming congregation of the United Church of Christ in Needham, MA.
