How can we be a church which allows itself to be made restless by history? To be affected by that which has come before? To be anxious to write a new chapter in the future?
May we become a leaven of harmony, indeed.

Religious people are often much more concerned with having the Answer™ than in kneeling down before the all-encompassing Mystery.
God isn't an answer on a pop quiz – she's something we can never fully comprehend.
And that's the point.

Something that is often missed when it comes to God's Word (as spoken through their prophets) is how much God *doesn't* want judgment to prevail. The Holy One seeks justice before judgment.

To learn the ways of the prophets who came before us.
To sit with their words, consider their warnings.
This season, let us consider the biblical version of f*ck around and find out.
