The rest is commentary – Zoom Church (3/22/20)
Our new rhythm of gathering for zoom church from our respective homes each Sunday morning prompts Pastor Megan to claim with more regular intention her occasional practice of sharing a “sermon-in-a-sentence.” This week’s scriptural reflection can be distilled to this: “The heart of our faith is love of God, neighbor, self; all the rest is commentary.” Tune in to hear a bit of that commentary, and to join your church community in praying and singing and recommitting ourselves to God’s shalom vision of a just peace for all creation. May we hold on to one another in these days.
