The Polarization Within: Compassion 2024 09 01

Scripture references: Isaiah 11:6-9 and Matthew 7:1-5 In this series, we are examining the news we take in and share. We are looking for the really good news that can sustain us in the long haul. Together, we find ways to tell deeply good news for all people by filtering our interactions through the lens of compassion. Today’s scripture gives us what feels like an impossible vision: those who are enemies existing peacefully together. It is said that if we can envision something, we can work towards it. Can we believe in the vision that the scriptures offer us of a way of being full of the knowledge of God instead of our own limited imagination and knowing? “MIGHTY TO SAVE” – CCLI Song # 4591782  |  Ben Fielding | Reuben Morgan  |  © 2006 Hillsong Music Publishing Australia (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing) | For use solely with the SongSelect® Terms of Use.
