Liturgy that Matters – July 10, 2022 – Amos 7:7-17

Themes: Does God punish communities for injustice or is it simply that we bear witness to the consequences of human action? Does our answer remain the same when in the location of the oppressed or the oppressor? What marks the theological differences between compromise and capitulation? Alongside rich exploration of how these questions manifest in systems and communities, this issue also explores what it looks like to create supportive relationships when beloveds struggle to secure or maintain employment under the conditions of capitalism.

This week’s sermon commentaries are written by Casey Overton with liturgy by Rev. Molly Bolton.
