A Cloud of Witnesses: Volume 2
The Christian faith spans generations, languages, cultures, and continents… 2000 years of people experiencing and expressing God’s action in the world.
These voices have shaped us, whether we know it or not. And so, this summer, preachers will put some of that shaping on display.
Instead of writing new sermons for each Sunday, preachers will be speaking with the words of someone else—words they’ve received that have gotten under their skin. Be it a mentor, a family member, a famous person, someone long deceased… This series nods to those who have gone before us, the great ‘Cloud of Witnesses’ that we stand with across time and space—and the gifts God exercises through them to this day.
