from Matthew 5:3-16
What is the witness of the church in a divided world? What is the witness of the church in a divisive political season? Is the witness wrapped up in supporting a given leader? In voting a given way and encouraging others to do so? Or is the witness of the church rooted in something much deeper…much more lasting? What if, considering Jesus’ words in his prayer recorded in John’s gospel, we find that our witness might be broader reaching and much more lasting by seeking together to live into who Jesus calls us to be…both as His hands and feet in this world, but also as a reflection of the fullness of Who God is as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit? Over the course of these few weeks we will consider the WHY and then some of the HOW we might seek to be Church Together in a divided time.

from Philippians 4:4-9
In times of turmoil we tend to look for that which will bring us peace; for that which will help us cope; for that which will help us through. Challenges, the unknown affects not only our outlook on life and our relationship with hope, but it can challenge our relationships with one another. When faced with such seasons the question becomes, where do you search? Who or what do you look to in order to find peace…to find, not just the peace that helps you cope, but the peace that guards your heart?

from Revelation 21:1-6
How are we to find hope amidst devastation and loss? It is not necessarily a question of looking at what is around us, rather it is a question of where our hope is anchored that determines how we face the challenges of the present. The word from Jesus is that He will return and renew all things and the degree to which we root ourselves in that truth and live our lives in the present based on that future hope shapes both our perspective and our ability to how we work to bring renewal to the world around us.
