With sanctuary restoration underway, we gathered on the front lawn for worship at 9:30 & 11:00 am. Matt’s message is rooted in James 1.17-27. How does our faith call us to relate to consumption and materialism? What might the tradition of Christian asceticism teach us about opening up, treading lightly, living simply, & simply living? The podcast includes a clip from worship of our music team leading Michael Franti’s Earth from Outer Space.
