- We are planning a Bible Study series on the latter half of the Book of Exodus five sessions, every other Tuesday , at 7:00 by ZOOM. This is open to all, even if you are not able to make a commitment to the entire series and whether or not you were able to join the study of the first half of Exodus. It is not a requirement to register, but it would help us in gauging the quantity of materials needed and to get you the booklet. Please advise of your intention by email to: Jim Joosse at: [email protected] or to the church office at: [email protected].

The Lord Bless You and Keep You

As restrictions have been loosened by health authorities, Council and many others in our congregation would very much like to gather in our church building once again. However, the requirements for meeting safely present a number of logistical issues around physical distancing, sanitizing, and the required exclusion of group singing. , . May the Lord bless us as we continue to worship apart from each other and grow together as the disciples of Jesus Christ.

Esau McCaulley is a priest in the Anglican Church in North America, and assistant professor of New Testament at Wheaton College. He wrote an article on June 1 for Christianity Today’s website under the title . He wrote about the expression which comes from Acts 2 and the story of Pentecost. When the Holy Spirit was poured out on the 120 disciples, and the nations were being drawn together, there we...re two responses: One group said in so many words, They are just drunk (Acts 2:13). The other asked, What does this mean? (Acts 2:12). McCaulley observes, One group refuses to acknowledge what is going on and draws upon their known experience to dismiss the work of God. The other asks a deeper question: What is God up to in their midst? Some people look at the black demands for justice and can only reach for a political explanation. Some say it’s probably a conspiracy by another political party to unseat those in power. Some say that outside groups are coming in with anti-establishment agendas. Some chalk it all up to disrespect and a refusal to count their blessings. Are responses like these in the same category as the They have had too much wine explanation? Maybe these responses are ways to avoid looking at the thing itself. They sound dismissive, or at least they give us a reason to look elsewhere. Maybe we gravitate to those simple explanations because dealing with the question What does this mean? is more painful or anxious for us who are in positions of privilege. Peter addressed the first group with a sentence or two but took more time to address the question of meaning. He told the crowd that they were experiencing the Spirit promised in Joel 2:2832. Peter reminded the early church that the universal gift of the Spirit is a testimony to the universal saving power of the gospel. : ? , , ? : , , ? ? ’ : .
