Looking Back to Look Ahead

Pastor Teresa is preaching and the scripture reading is Luke 4:14-21 when Jesus proclaims the Spirit is upon him to preach the good news. As Jesus looks back to the prophetic teachings from Isaiah to inform his ministry, we will consider the importance of looking to the past as we move into God’s preferred future.

“Any message that is not related to the liberation of the poor in a society is not Christ’s message.”

– Rev. Dr. James Cone

There is no power greater than a community discovering what it cares about. Ask “What's possible?” not “What's wrong?” Keep asking.”

– Margaret Wheatley
