In kicking off “The Bible” series last week, we started at the beginning of all beginnings. We started at the first page of the Bible: the creation narrative from Genesis 1. The theme of the opening paragraphs of the Bible is that God, the one who makes order from chaos, is to be worshipped in his temple (the vast expanse of the entire created universe). All things belong to God and are intended for his worship, including us. Which, if we’re honest with ourselves, creates a tension. We like being the center of the universe. We like bending the arc of creation around us. Only, what God intended, throughout the Bible, is that He is above us, above all things, the one who is to be worshipped.
In light of Father’s Day, we’ll continue in our “The Bible” series this week as we look at the Bible’s most famous and often confusing father. This weekend is all about fathers. We’re going big with a tailgate themed “dad fest”. Come hungry. Bring your dad.
Looking forward to all of what God is going to do this weekend,
Jeff
JUST A REMINDER: this weekend is the final weekend of Saturday services at Mariners MV.
