Pastor Laura Katherine Stern - In this text, we find everyone asleep. It is as if they had all wandered with Dorothy, the Tin Man, Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion into the poppy field. Everybody is out. And the sleep described here wasn’t just physical – it was an existential sleep as well. There was a malaise that had settled across the nation of Israel. But God doesn't let them (and by extension us) stay that way. Join us as we hear the ways that God is waking us up!
