Voices of the Voiceless
We conclude our worship series on the Art & Resurrection of Justice with Linda and Matt’s message on the voices of the voiceless. The message is rooted in John 10. The biblical scholarship and reflection for this message draws upon the writing of Anne Howard’s blog Change the Soundtrack and the contemporary stories shared from southeast Asia come from David Batstone’s Not for Sale.

Lean In
Linda’s message is rooted in the story of Mary anointing Jesus’ feet in John 12.1-8. How might Jesus call us to lean in? What expectations will we be led to break? Who do we say Jesus is today? Opening Song: Jesus Are You Real by Mason Jennings.
