Liturgy that Matters – January 24, 2021 – 1 Corinthians 7:29-31

Themes: “In order for the new world to come about,” sermon commentary writer Minister Candace Simpson writes, “there must be an end to the present one. As the elders often say, ‘you cannot have it both ways.’ Something has to give.” This issue explores what it means for this world to “pass away” and for us to shape the next one. Will we co-create in partnership with God or resist the necessary losses and changes required to birth something more just, more life-giving, more healthy for creature and creation?
