Blessing the World as an Act of Resistance

Worship Leader: Rev. Patty Hanneman

Music: Vocal Trio; Matt Reid – Piano; Wendy Looker – Music Director

Worship Associate: Ava Macon

Often when we hear the work “resistance” we think of the most politically charged and publicly visible examples of activism. But sometimes the most critical protest begins at home, with a resistance to our usual patterns that get in the way of all that is good in our world.

Planting Seeds of Hope

Worship Leader: Rev. Patty Hanneman

Music: The Maudlin Brothers (Jonh Moore, Ed Norman & Tim Wells); Matt Reid – Piano; Wendy Looker – Music Director

Our opponents would love for us to believe that it’s hopeless, that there is no reason to act, and that we can’t win. Summer is a time of anticipation, when we are reminded that what we plant is what we harvest.
