Mountain Sunday – September 22nd 10:30am
This is Mountain Sunday in our Season of Creation series. It is almost impossible to look toward a mountain range on a clear day and not be moved by the beauty and grandeur of that view.
It is this vision of unmatched strength and grandeur that the prophet Isaiah invites us to consider as we imagine God’s holy mountain. The mountain is the New Jerusalem, where the former ways of violence, death, greed, threat and exile are done away with and a new possibility is presented – the possibility of a world where “the wolf and the lamb shall feed together”.
For us today, this suggests God’s capacity to reform, transform and “make new” that which is evil, harmful and destructive.
See you on Sunday!
