I thought I’d share a couple or things from the service I attended yesterday. First, there was a clip of poet Amena Brown reciting her poem “To Worship You“. I am sure that many regular visitors to this blog may not think of God in the same way she does, but since we talk a lot about metaphor here, I have to say, this woman is using powerful metaphors in a powerful way. Let me know what you think!
The other thing I’ll share, on a lighter note, is from the sermon on Genesis 3. The preacher suggested that the reason the snake tempted Eve first was that if Adam had eaten the fruit first and then brought it home to Eve, she would have asked “Where did you get that? Was it on sale? How do you know it doesn’t have salmonella?” and perhaps also “Did your mother cook you this?”
