    For June 22, 2025:
    • The Terrifying Sound of Broken Chains by Chris Keating based on Luke 8:26-39. Though Jesus’ healing of the Gerasene Demoniac produces more fear than calm among the people he had terrorized, it is a reminder of God’s triumph over the powers of fear and all that threatens to dominate...

    But now that faith has come, we are no longer subject to a disciplinarian,  for in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith.  As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is no longer Jew or Greek; there is no longer slave or free; there is no longer male and female, for all of you are one in Christ...

    1 Kings 19:1-4 (5-7) 8-15a and Psalm 42-43
    I can’t tell you how often in the past year I have sought the peace that comes from resting in God. Almost every day the stress and strain of just living in peace with my neighbors can be a challenge to my peace, not to mention the chaos and the violence that is reported in the news every day. These are the moments when I...

    We’re not far from the 4th of July. And while for so many Americans, it seems that the holiday has become more about long weekends, cookouts, and fireworks shows, the theme of freedom is still there at least in the background. We might take advantage of that, therefore, and give some thought to the theme of freedom as it is revealed in our assigned texts for this week.

    Freedom is a...

    Call to Worship:

    The madman cried out to Jesus, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God?" In our worship today let us explore what Jesus has to do with us and invite him to heal our brokenness.

    When Jill was five, she began to have headaches. The headaches were so severe she would throw up. Sometimes she would pass out. They usually came once a month. Jill could be playing, resting, or watching television when the headaches would come. Her only warning was a sudden pain in her head, then a blinding light would appear, and she would be rocked with pain. In her teenage years, they became...

    I'm not sure when the term "burn out" ceased being only a description of what happened to a campfire when you ran out of firewood to a term describing the experience of long-term exhaustion and diminished interest, usually coming immediately after an extended period of overwork, but the expression seems to fit that later situation, doesn't it? Exhaustion, deep weariness, all used up, nothing more...

    In the classic movie, Mary Poppins, Julie Andrews plays a no-nonsense, yet delightful, nanny to two young children. As a nanny to a wealthy family, she is part teacher, part parent, and part disciplinarian. She gets the children up in the morning, puts them to bed at night, supervises their many adventures, and guides them in many ways. While they are in her care, she is responsible for...

    Zoos are no longer in people's good graces.
    Religion faces the same problem.
    Certain illusions about freedom plague them both.
