Thought For The Week 3 June 2018

It’s quite exciting to be starting this sermon series on Caring for Creation.   It really does feel like one of those “God moments”.  Quite independently several things have come together to allow this preaching series and the accompanying small group studies to happen.  The enthusiasm and  response from the congregation has been genuinely encouraging.

Clearly, collectively, we have a desire to be good stewards of God’s creation.  What a beautiful thing!

I wonder what we will learn, where God will guide and nudge us, what future directions of new life and hope will grow out of this time that we spend together.

Creation is marked by beauty and splendour, and it is marred by the scars of  brokenness and separation from God.  Just like us.

Together, let’s explore God’s purpose in our lives and in our world.

Arohanui,
