Hope Springs Eternal - The River Is Moving (A Sermon for EDUSC Clergy Conference)
play

09/25/18 • 16 min

As is the case with any successful institution, the church as we know it today was built with the best social and religious engineering available: as a robust and hardy structure to last. A lot of time, energy, sweat, and money has been invested. Generations of investment. And it served as a bridge for many to move from birth to death. It spanned the river. And that all worked very well when the river was in the right place.

he clearest definition I’ve ever heard for the mission of God is this: Crossing boundaries for love.

Bishop Holly did that his whole life. He was a priest and a bishop and a missionary that crossed boundaries, literally and figuratively. That’s why we remember him today.

Philip did that, when he listened to the Spirit’s call to to cross a boundary and engage in conversation with the Ethiopian.

Lent...and this journey to Good Friday and Easter...is a reminder that Jesus crossed crossed the ultimate boundary...between heaven and earth...for love.

So, I ask you? Where do you see boundaries in your community? In your church? In your own life?

And what boundaries are you willing to cross for love?
