This Sunday, July 31, 2011

"Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until daybreak...."  Genesis 32:24

For many of us, faith is like a wrestling match with God; we want to both hold on to and also fight against the Divine One; we want to both believe in and also turn our backs on God.  And for many of us, we desperately want to know that God loves us but have difficulty accepting that love because we find it hard to love ourselves.

I hope you will join us for worship at 10 am.  My sermon will be "Wrestling with God," based on Genesis 32:22-31.
