Lenten Sermon Series
February 17, 2023
This Lent we will explore several encounters in scripture when someone is seeking. Nicodemus comes to Jesus in the veil of night, Jesus approaches a Samaritan woman at a well, a man born without sight seeks healing. In these stories, each person is seeking a new beginning, a different life, a deeper faith. What unfolds is an exchange filled with questions and exploration. Often, an unveiling occurs—assumptions are disrupted, a new perspective is revealed, mystery grows.
Like the characters in our Lenten scriptures, we are also seeking many things: clarity, connection, wonder, justice, balance. We are seeking our calling, the sacred, and how to live as a disciple. Throughout the turbulence of the past few years, many of us are asking big questions about our lives and our faith. We hope this series will help us unpack some of those big questions in ways that are honest and faithful. Throughout this season, we hope you will continually ask yourself: what am I seeking? What is God seeking? Each week in worship we will ask an honest question for deeper faith.
