Sermon: "I Don't Belong Here", Isaiah 6:1-8 (June 4, 2023)

---------------------------------------------------

The Narrative Lectionary takes a break over the summer, but it offers suggestions of scripture to take a closer look at, parts of the Bible that are glossed over or skipped entirely during the regular cycle. So, during the month of June, we’ll be looking at Isaiah, a book that’s long been called “the Fifth Gospel” in Christian circles because of the large number of messianic references contained within its pages.

Reflections on Spring

Spring Makes Me Feel...

Spring makes me feel like I belong in the world. 

Winter makes me feel like the universe is trying to shut me out, to keep me from participating. Fall makes me feel like I'm on the outside looking in, appreciating nature but distinctly separate from it. Summer makes me feel like I'm fighting for my right to be here. 

But spring makes me feel like I belong in the world.
