A Time to Turn - October 6, 2019
"Confessing our sins is not a “woe is me” action; it is not an act of self-flagellation. It is a clear-eyed assessment of our power to help and heal and make whole ourselves and the world, of the ways we have not taken up the power which is ours, and of the ways we will move into our power more fully in the new year ahead. Confessing our sins is an act of hope, promise, and strength. It demonstrates our faith in the power of life as we move through a season of death. As we turn towards taking up our power and our commitments, we say “yes” to life, to love, to the universe, to God." Read the rest of the sermon here:
