What does freedom mean to you? Today, let’s look at freedom from a few different perspectives, together.

As we return to worship together, after more than a year of difficult isolation, we are catching up with friends who have endured much loss and suffered deeply. As a church community, how can we show compassion for our brothers and sisters, while also acknowledging the loss of time and fellowship we’ve all experienced? How do we come together again? 

I sometimes think about what I might do when I first see Jesus face-to-face. Will I hug him, thank him for his love and sacrifice on my behalf? And then, will I have the nerve to ask him, “What was that all about?” If I did, I like to imagine he might reply, “Didn’t you enjoy it at all?”

July 4 is the day we celebrate our country’s independence day. This Sunday we will also celebrate the freedom which we have been given in Christ.
