Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost
God
We affirm that God is the "creator of heaven and earth." Yet, how we articulate who God is to the world often communicates a vision that falls short of God's greatness and ultimacy. Like the parable of the blind men feeling the elephant, each describing their own experience but making the mistake of assuming there can be no other experience or something beyond the reach of their senses. We, too, paint a picture of God that is far too small. We must recognize our own limitations and not be too quick to cram God into a box in the shape of our own prejudices or keep God on a shelf, to be taken down only when we need it.
WOW Kids and the Breakthrough Youth are on summer break and will resume meeting this fall. Have a great summer and stay safe!
