Amos 5:18-24

 

What a week to hear Amos' prophetic cry that justice should roll down like waters and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. 

Also, I failed to stop my recording at the end of the sermon this week, so it's not as long as listed here. My apologies. Running our entire Zoom worship off my laptop while leading it is not in any way a sustainable plan.

All Saints Sunday, Lectionary Year A

 

Matthew 5:1-12

 

In his famous and powerful teaching known as the Beatitudes, Jesus teaches us the values by which we can live in harmony with one another and with God. The news during this election season throws those values into stark relief, and we see that they are so much more than niceness or pleasant platitudes.
