We continue to think about God’s care for creation in the gospels as we hear Jesus’ words of reassurance from the Sermon onthe Mount: ‘Do not worry’

Let us worship God

This week’s service a little later and sifferent in format than usual – technical issues! – this is the service from Aberlour Parish Church on Sunday 15th August.

We think about care for creation in the gospels, and the significance of even the stones crying out when Jesus enters Jerusalem.

Let us worship God.

As Ezra’s Judeans are allowed to finish rebuilding the Temple, we ask what sort of a community and people it is that we want to build.

Let us worship God.

We continue through the book of Ezra and find the Judeans who are rebuilding the Temple hitting a snag – not everyone is happy about what they are doing.

But how much of the conflict was inevitable and how was of the Judeans’ own making? And what stories do we tell about the folk we just don’t get on with?

Let us worship God.

As we continue journey through Ezra with the Judeans returning from exile, we witness their happiness as they lay the foundation for the Temple.

But it’s not cheering and joy for everyone…

No matter how we feel, God is there for us.

Let’s worship God.
