Rev. Mitchell Boone kicked off our new worship series, Encountering the Risen Christ, with laughter. At the beginning of Mitchell's sermon he jokes about an "oops" during the offertory. You'll have to listen to hear about it, as well as his sermon to kick off the series.
This series takes the momentum of Easter Sunday and continues it into Eastertide - a time we continue to celebrate the risen Christ. In this series we will specifically look at the last two chapters of John and the encounters the disciples have with the risen Christ and what those encounters reveal and mean to us today.
Mitchell speaks about Inaugurated Eschatology - the already/not yet reality of God's kingdom/reign. He also emphasizes the role of the women, and specifically Mary, in these encounters.
Let us know your thoughts on Encountering the Risen Christ, and what religious experiences mean to you.
