Our CPS App

During Lent, the church is obligated to assess where it is currently, and where it should be headed. If the course is wrong, the church is obligated to correct it. In that spirit of correction, Fr. Richard Rohr wrote:

We worshiped Jesus instead of following Him on his same path.
We made Jesus into a mere religion instead of a journey toward union with God and everything else.
This shift made us into a religion of “belonging and believing” instead of a religion of transformation.

That is pretty damning when you think on it. 

Join the congregation of Community Presbyterian Church of Bellefonte, Ky. for this week's sermon, Our CPS App by clicking HERE for audio or HERE for text.

Community Presbyterian Church of Bellefonte, Kentucky, was built on the casting floor of a 19th Century iron blast furnace. We use "The Casting Floor" as an image for the power of the Spirit to form us. Visit us at http://communitypresbyterian.org.

    The author is Fr. Richard Rohr, but off the top of my head, I don't recall where I found it. Fr. Rohr is an economical preacher whose style I very much appreciate. He's got a blog as well. Try https://cac.org/sign-up?gclid=CNu1qriMrcQCFRCqaQodlZgAdQ
