So far in this series, we’ve been talking about returning home. But what if return runs even deeper? What if return completely turns our world upside down? This is the case with the story of the ten people with leprosy healed. What does it mean it to be a Samaritan who returns—someone who never had a home in Jesus’ circles in the first place?
Our worship series for this fall is called Homecoming: Stories of Return. We’re looking at all sorts of stories of return in Scripture: parables, history, Jesus stories, church stories, and poetry. What does it mean to return home? We’ll be looking at how complicated returning home can be when home is no longer what we remembered or perhaps not even there anymore. We’ll be imagining home as a place we make rather than a place we travel to, and we’ll be discovering that returning is a group endeavor. This series will culminate with the dedication of our repaired building, our own return.
