From time out of time, the scary parts of our minds have been afraid that those outside our common unity -- the people we know -- are trying to make lunch of us. It makes us so fearful of "the other" that we do crazy things like build nuclear weapons in profligate numbers sufficient to extinguish life from our planet. Then, we insist on viewing ourselves as rational beings, which we are clearly not.

On the One Hand
On the one hand, we would all like to see our treasured traditions move courageously into the future. It's comforting to see things we love treasured by others.
On the other hand, we don't live in the future, and what the future holds does not belong to us. Join the congregation of Community Presbyterian Church of Bellefonte, Ky. for this week's sermon, On the One Hand by clicking HERE for audio or HERE for text.

The Remnant
As our congregations become smaller and greyer and the voices proclaiming the future of the church become ever more strident, I am convinced that the transmission of the faith into the future will be done, not by those whose loud voices we hear now, but the remnant of our large congregations who will ignore the loud voices and follow the leadership of God as He takes His church into the new challenges.

God's Eye View
People pursue God for many reasons. Sometimes people pursue God to find assurance of their own righteousness. That way leads nowhere. What if you could see your life through God's Eyes? What would you see?
