Lost Causes
from Meeting Midway Hosted by Lysbeth Hamlin, Marita Harrell, Jennie Andone
In this episode of Meeting Midway, Pastor Jennie talks about Luke Chapter 15. In looking at this portion of scripture, Pastor Jennie reflects on how the church must pursue those that are in need in our world and not those already at the table. Like the shepherd who looks for the one lost sheep, the church should be the community that goes outside of it's walls looking to affect the one. Pastor Jennie speaks to our current context in this message and highlights themes of adoption, family, and love. After Pastor Jennie's message, Lysbeth Hamlin shares her family's story of fostering two children and later adopting them, and Rev. Marita Harrell shares the story of Wellroot Family Services (formerly known as The United Methodist Children's Home) in preparation for a special offering for Wellroot.
