This service is the beginning of the season of Lent, and one of Pastor Jessie’s favorites. It also kicks off a new sermon series for Lent:
Lent Sermon Series: BUSY
Come to me all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, I will give you rest. — Matthew 11:28
The season of Lent has often been a time when we traditionally think about “giving something up”. But what if we thought less about “giving up” and more about “making room?” In this Lent series, we will find out what it really costs to be so busy, and we will invite each other to practices of making room, clearing out, slowing down, and prioritizing for the sake of holistic lives. This holistic life involves living with the rhythms that allow us to thrive, finding a balance between work, play, rest, and reflection. Jesus calls his followers to more than just unbridled consumption or production. Rather, the Scriptures see our lives and bodies as gifts that should be nurtured.
Let us reconnect to an unhurried God!
