THIS WEEK IN WORSHIP
We Cannot Stop Speaking About What We Have Seen and Heard
This week we begin a summer series focused on testimony with the testimony of Ned Kauffman and Paul Steury, two CMCers who have seen and heard God at work in creation and through God’s call on their own lives to care for the earth. Christian thought has always understood that a good God created a good earth, and that, although God is transcendent (other than creation), and is not to be found in creation, God enters into creation and is revealed to the creation incarnationally and sacramentally. Furthermore, even as creation is in travail, the whole of it has the promise of God’s salvation, not just human beings. The whole creation groans for redemption, and it does not do so in futility. This week we give testimony to a creating God, a God who calls humans to care for the earth, and a God who promises redemption for all creation. —Phil Waite
