Sunday Message: The Creation of the World

This Sunday – The Symphony of Creation This is a sermon theme that I preached on last fall. I am excited to be working with Adam and the Bell Choir to “open up” the reading of Genesis 1 and letting it SING again. I hope we will be able to help you enter this text using all your senses. I come back to this text again because I think it is so important to allow this text to continue to inform our understanding of God, the nature of creation and find our place in God’s wonderful work. As we navigate hard places, this gift of the creation story as a “Symphony of Creation” can be helpful. This creation song can give us stability and direction when we feel we have lost our way. I look forward to entering into the Creation Story once again as we experience together the glory and goodness of God-with-us. Love and blessings, Karl
