Life Together
A worship series on lessons in life together from ancient prophets
January 8 – February 26
The title of our worship series is taken from a book by Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a Lutheran pastor who led a resistance movement during the rise of Hitler and the Nazi regime. Worship over the next two months will invite & challenge us to consider what “costly discipleship” might look like at this moment in time. Worship will be rooted each week in a story from the Hebrew Bible, mostly from the prophets. Learnings from Bonhoeffer’s life and writings will also inspire our worship series. The prophet writes, “you shall be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to live in” (Isaiah 58.12). We hope this series on Life Together will embolden us to follow in the ways of Isaiah as we seek to align our lives with the life of Jesus.
