Tenth Sunday after Pentecost-
August 18, 2019
Today’s reading from Jeremiah 23:23-29 distinguishes between the true prophet, like Jeremiah, who speaks God’s word, and the false prophet who misleads the people through dreams.
 
The author of Hebrews 11:29-12:2; presents us with rich stories of faith. In a long list of biblical heroes, we find examples of trust in God that enabled them to face trials of life faithfully. In addition, we have Jesus, the perfect model of faithful endurance.
 
In the Gospel reading of Luke 12:49-56, Jesus delivers harsh words about the purifying and potentially divisive effects of obedience to God’s call. The way of the cross often leads followers to encounter hostility and rejection, even from those they love.
 
     May God bless our worship.
 
Saturday Worship Theme
A worship series entitled, “Gospel has come to you,” continues at this week’s 5:00 p.m. Saturday Contemporary Praise Worship Service. The series considers the ways in which we are called, gathered, enlightened and sanctified through the Holy Spirit.

We pray that you stay safe during the summer. Please check on your neighbors, the elderly and your pets.
