Listening For God

Preacher: Rev. Dr. Donna Claycomb Sokol, Pastor Scriptures: Genesis 17:1-7, 15-16 & Mark 8:31-38 This week we will ponder the sense of hearing as it relates to our faith. “Our hearing anchors us in the world; it tells us what’s happening behind us, above us, in the dark, and before we’re born,” writes Gretchen Rubin. And yet, we are not very good at truly listening to the sounds that fill the air, let alone the words coming forth from the mouths of colleagues, friends, and family members. How might we cultivate the capacity to truly hear one another in a way that anchors our ears to also hear God?
