We are Clay
from Hearts Open to the Word · host Rev. Dr. Charissa Clark Howe
In this sermon exploring Jeremiah 18:1-11 and Psalm 139:1-6, 13-18, we examine how God works both individually and communally to shape us into vessels for justice. Using imagery of pottery and knitting, we consider what it means to remain malleable in God's hands while navigating the tensions between personal spiritual formation and systemic change. The sermon reflects on how covenant community bridges the gap between individual transformation and broader societal reformation.
