The Power of God

7/25/2025

 
​Odds are, when you hear the phrase “The Power of God,” some clear images come into your mind: images of a God who is almighty, great, the alpha and omega, judge of the earth, and mighty king. But Scripture is faithful to also inform us that our God’s power is one marked by self-giving love, incarnated within a place, humble, lowly, and a spirit of service. God doesn’t need mighty steeds, ominous thrones or displays of dominance. Instead, God chooses to exhibit power through Jesus — a different kind of King. The gospels reveal to us Jesus’ use of power, and that power is subversive, meek, peaceful, and kind. Jesus’ power is found in the cross. It is the kind of power that transforms dead things into fully alive creatures. So, what does any of this have to do with ecological care as God’s people?
​
The answer is: Everything.

Plastic Jesus: Real Faith in a Synthetic World (Earth Day Sunday 2024)

1/31/2024

 
Everywhere we look in our culture you will find plastic.
It surrounds our food, it makes up our technology and it is a standard element in our household items. Unfortunately, it is also overflowing from our landfills, floating in our waters and polluting our soil. More and more, you can even find it in our own bodies and those of other living creatures. There have even been traces of plastic found in breast milk. Despite the fact that we have learned the harms of plastics, we are steadily increasing our production of the material and integrating it into more and more items. Plastic is everywhere!
One place where you will not find plastic, however, is in the Bible.
This resource is designed to help congregations think more deeply about the ways that plastics impact our lives and God's creation. It is also intended to equip people of faith to take actions to address this epidemic in faithful and practical ways.
​Download this resource to find stories of individuals and communities making a positive impact, sermon starters to spark meaningful discussions in your church, worship resources to unite in prayer and reflection, and actionable steps to address the plastic crisis in your life, community and our world.
