Abundance or Scarcity?

Posted on: 04/23/2012 13:00

DO you believe you have enough?  Too much?  Not enough?

 

That is the question with which I am starting my sermon thoughts this week.  Those early thoughts can be found <a href="http://ministerialmutterings.blogspot.ca/2012/04/looking-forward-to-april-29-2012-4th.html" target="_blank"><b><i>here.</i></b></a>

Moderator Mardi Tindal's blog: Joy in the music and struggle

Posted on: 11/20/2009 16:54

Welcome to my blog—a place to reflect with me on God’s abundant healing of soul, community, and creation. I hope you will visit often and be part of this sacred conversation.
 
For four days the General Council Executive (GCE) has met carefully and faithfully, discerning God’s leading and direction as we considered the actions of General Council and their implementation.
 
There was joy in the struggle as we recognized both our gifts and our limitations as a church. In God’s world, there is abundance in community, and wherever our particular gifts end (and our limitations begin), others’ particular gifts begin and are called forth. I saw this process of trusting one another’s good gifts throughout the meeting, and am confident that when we have the sense to choose community, the truth of abundance is known in both personal and institutional ways. We are being called to explore and live into this truth in new ways as the United Church.
