How do you find contentment in life, especially during a season when the world seems to tell us we need to strive for an overflowing cornucopia of more, more, more?

"Enough To Give"
Rev. Laura Hewett Becker
Earlier in Mark’s Gospel, Jesus told a crowd that if any would follow him, they should “take up their cross.” These three consecutive passages in Mark 10 give us a little more insight into what Jesus was talking about. Interactions with a rich man, disciples James and John, and a blind beggar each reveal part of the challenge of taking up our cross. This series looks closely at the different parts of this act of discipleship and what it means for our day-to-day lives.

James gives us a chance to reflect on the nature of Christian service and how we can continue our mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world by engaging with our wider community in acts of service. One thing that is clear from current sociological research is that while there are many who question the institution of the church, getting involved in providing real help to better our neighborhoods and to lift up the individuals and families within them is an easy entry into the worship life of the church. James asks us to maintain an outward focus, even when we gather for worship.

"Succumb or Share"
Rev. Laura Hewett Becker
Summer is a time for family reunions. For some of us, family reunions are fun and fulfilling. For others of us, they are uncomfortable or even painful. We all have some dysfunction in our families. We all have stories that we’d rather not tell. In the stories of Genesis, we discover God’s chosen family – those first generations of Israel – had struggles, secrets, sibling rivalries, and even threats of murder. As we explore these rich and ancient stories, we see how God works through and in spite of family dysfunction to bring about God’s purposes for the world, and we find hope for God’s presence and movement in our own families.
