Bread and water. Simple, everyday things that have so much meaning within the context of the church. Bread symbolizes the body of Christ. It sustains and strengthens us. Water symbolizes new life in Christ. Death to our sins and a rising with Christ. Jesus chose the plainest of things to connect us to him. The things that we would be in touch with every day.
This week we begin a new sermon series. Bread, Bath, and Beyond. In it we will spend time examining the symbols that we have been given. We will invite you to move beyond limitations, and find new beginnings to help to create a better world. I hope that you can join us.
Peace,
Matthew
