IT’s SUNDAY & YOUR VIBE ATTRACTS YOUR TRIBE!
It’s Sunday, and that means you get to make another choice. Will you give an hour or two to worship the God of All Creation, or wait in line for your favorite place to grab a tasty brunch? Don’t get me wrong, I’ve opted for brunch before, as well. Nothing but grace from this pastor, especially when it comes to Sunday Brunch!
I really do believe that when we set aside our preferences, orthodoxies and hang-ups, we can give the Divine a brief time on Sunday Morning, don’t you?
Maybe you grew up in a church that left you a bit punch drunk from the guilt that pummeled your soul each week. Maybe church become cold, dead or boring and you just decided, “no thanks.” Maybe the church you were at suffered from bitter, angry folks that didn’t seem very “christianly” to you. I could go on and on with the problems.
But listen, friend. Worship isn’t about church politics, or who spends the money. It isn’t if you like hymns or songs or chants. Worship is about recognizing and honoring the Divine. If you worship with me, you can join in with sinners, hypocrites, complainers, whiners, thieves and liars! That’s when we can all say, as we greet each other at the door – “WELCOME HOME!”
