The Case for Change (October 23 – November 20, 2022)

As we continue a year-long journey of exploration into the nature of change in our faith and life, we focus on the case to be made for the necessity and opportunity presented by change. Change is so much more than a disruption; through change we are invited into the possibility of growth and transformation. We’ll explore the role of change in five arenas: the cosmos, biology, theology, religion, and culture.

 

Oct. 23 – Cosmic (Genesis 1:1-6, 9, 11, 14-15, 20, 24, 26-27 – key verses – 2-3) From the beginning, change has ushered in new possibilities in our universe and world.

Oct. 30 – Biological (Leviticus 25:1-7 – key verse – 4) God weaves change into the fabric of life, inviting us into the rhythm of life change in weekly cycles of work and sabbath.1

Nov. 6 – Theological (Isaiah 2:2-4 – key verse – 2) Catastrophic change can heal our blindness and enable us to understand God in ways that transcend self-interest.

Nov. 13 – Religious (Matthew 5:43-48 – key verses – 44-45) Jesus invites us to change and challenge our religious habits in order to experience the transforming power to which all true religion points.

Nov. 20 – Cultural (Acts 10:9-16 – key verse – 15) Long-held cultural practices can prevent us from aligning our lives with our beliefs. Changing them can help us live the truth in relationship with others.
