The New Church of Montgomery will not meet for Worship this Sunday, but our hosts and friends, the Glendale New Church, will.
Friends,
We will gather this Sunday in the Sanctuary, observing all the best practices for safety.
Worship will begin at 11 AM.
Our topic is taken from Mark 13, which is a long speech about the future. Why does Jesus spend the whole chapter inflaming our fears? Why does he invent all these terrible scenarios? “You will hear of wars and threats of wars.” “You will be handed over to the local councils and beaten.” “Everyone will hate you.” “There will be greater anguish in those days than at any time since God created the world.” “Watch out! I have warned you about this ahead of time!”
We will explore how we react to these prophecies with the expectation that we will be enlightened, strengthened and encouraged. Because that is what Jesus is ultimately doing with his entire life on earth.
Be well,
Pastor Clark
