Worship: Eagerness in God’s Generous Undertaking

2 Corinthians 8:7-15 | It may be easy to say, “we all are one in Christ.” Even across denominations, various ways of thinking, and a multitude of ways we live out our faith, we confess that we are bound together by our common confession in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. But when the rubber meets the road, what does that really mean? How are we – as individuals, as congregations, and as faith organizations – called to take up the generous undertaking of serving in God’s Kingdom? As Shepherd and New Era gather as one in worship, we invite you to join us this weekend as we hear Paul address the Corinthian church, urging them to look upon another community of faith with compassion, and as we hear the Spirit’s call to take up the work that God has already begun in our midst.
