Today is the fourth Sunday in Lent. Rev. Ron Bartlow continues our Lenten sermon series "Courageous Faith: Values and Practices for When Life Gets Hard". Creative reading of Scripture helps us to keep our eyes on Jesus, to be inspired and formed by God's holy word. Jesus cites the experience of Moses's day. In putting ourselves into the story, here or elsewhere, we open ourselves to God's inspiration. Today's sermon is drawn from Jeremiah 31:31-34, Numbers 21:4-9, John 3:14-21 and Ephesians 2:1-10.
