David Lewicki preaching. The very first Biblical story I ever learned was the story of David and Goliath. Of course, I was fascinated by the idea that another “David” was a biblical hero. And what’s not to like about the story? A handsome (but scrawny) farm boy comes out of nowhere to topple the nasty foreign warrior with his courage and a slingshot. It didn’t hurt that the story mirrored the plotline of my favorite movie, Star Wars, with farmboy Luke Skywalker standing in as “the chosen one” to defeat the Empire. Even today, I’m partial to the justice of “David and Goliath” stories, when an underdog rises up to defeat a more powerful adversary. But if you start poking around in the story of David, you will find much more than a rags to riches underdog story. You will find a sobering depiction of how hard it is to be a leader–and how leaders are no better or worse than their followers. This week in our summer series, we read about David & Goliath. It is the Best. Story. Ever.
Join us on Facebook at this link at 10:00 a.m. as we gather together virtually as a worshiping community. We will view the pre-recorded video together, comment, “sign” the welcome register and chat with each other, even during the sermon.
Fellowship Time
Want to connect with other members? We have a tradition of enjoying lemonade outside after worship in the summers. We can’t gather in person yet but we can gather virtually to catch up, break the ice if you are new, and stay cool together through summer fellowship.
Join our host for a virtual “lemonade time” from 11:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. after our Sunday service watch party. The host will convene us with a warm greeting and ice breaker question. If there are a bunch of us, the host will even open up Zoom rooms for smaller groups and rotate us around to mingle and make the most of this super fantastic social set-up. Join us for our Lemonade and Zoom hour. Details are in the Communicator and the Sunday morning email.
