There Is God (September 7, 2025)

Somewhere along the way, Christianity become professionalized. All too often these days we look to clergy to tell us all about God--most particularly, about where and how God is allowed to show up in our lives. And those "allowed appearances" have become more strictly filtered through the church: "A 'God moment" must look like this but never that, here but never there." But, really, God is everywhere-- even outside the church! even in you! even in the people you like the least!-- and you don't need special training or special glasses to see Them. You just have to be willing to notice the way the trees move when God passes by. (John 3:1-8). Rev. John MacIver Gage, preaching.Join us for worship Sundays @ 10am EDT, on-site & online via Zoom.
