Core Values 2023: Worship


We continue our exploration of our core values at CLC. In this message, I talk about the importance of learning and to understand what underpins our faith and what does not!
It is the day of Pentecost (the birthday of the Church) but it is a day we lament the racism in our nation. How do these two go together? The Spirit gives us the strength to be advocates.
Jesus arrives in Jerusalem and there is a huge celebration praising Jesus for what they think Jesus is about. The crowd is wrong. They seek a political solution for a spiritual problem.
We continue on in the Old Testament book of Daniel. Today we discover that Daniel’s friends are in trouble because they won’t worship a golden statue. The heat is on when they refuse to obey.
