This is the final week of our series on Reading the Bible Again, informed by Marcus Borg’s Reading the Bible Again for the First Time. As we worship online, let us continue to pray for our community as we respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This week, we shift from how to read into how to live as we dive into the theme of practical theology. In week one, on “Epiphany & Creation,” Pastor Bob related how Marcus Borg, on whose book our series is based, talks about the Bible as a sacrament. In the United Methodist tradition, a sacrament is defined as “an outward and visible sign of an inward and invisible grace.” We ourselves are called to live sacramentally, aren’t we? Shouldn’t we ourselves live, wholeheartedly, as “an outward and visible sign of an inward and invisible grace”?
Scripture: Luke 10:25-37
