Wrestling with God

Wrestling with God

Sometimes the life of faith is like a great banquet with well-aged wines, or finding a buried treasure in a field. But other times it is, well, more like a mysterious wrestling match with life, the universe, and everything.

A hard text for hard times.

A hard text for hard times.

The Binding of Isaac (Genesis 22:1-14) is one of the hardest of the hard texts of the Bible. God tells Abraham to sacrifice his son. What will Abraham do? What would you do? Why would God ask someone to do that? What does it mean to have faith - and would you even want to have faith like that?

It’s a passage with no easy answers, which perhaps makes it suitable for times in our lives where easy answers are hard to come by.

Tuesday Gathering

The story of Jonah and the Whale is a really significant one for a lot of us in Northcote UCA. It’s a story about the God who never lets us go, even if it involves calming storms, whale-herding, and beachcombing.

Tuesday Gathering - Communion

The hand of the LORD came upon me, and he brought me out by the spirit of the LORD and set me down in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. He led me all around them; there were very many lying in the valley, and they were very dry. Ezekiel 37:1-2

When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with strips of cloth and his face wrapped in a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go. John 11:43-44

Whatever the Good News is, it has something to do with God bringing life out of death, hope out of despair, joining our dry bones one to another and calling us up out of the grave.

This is our regular monthly Eucharist (aka Communion or The Lord’s Supper)
