Mark 7: 1-8, 14-15, 21-23; James 1:17-27 | In the past year and a half, we have become more and more attuned to how what lies around us can infect us and spread like wildfire. But just as much as a virus can duplicate, time and time again, what lies within us can also spread and cause just as much suffering. Anger, jealousy, judgment, fear, and insecurity can arise within us at a moments’ notice…even when we have the best of intentions. So then, how do we live together in community and in Christ? Join us as we confess our sin and remember the Living Word of God that has already been implanted within us.
