Alliance Gathering Report

Each year I am reminder and encouraged by my time meeting at the Alliance of Baptists Annual Gathering. It is always a nice and peaceful week to be among other Baptists who think and act as we do at Central. This year the theme was Embracing God’s Call to Justice and Love. And much of what we heard was in our grand tradition of provocation and dissent.  In order to live out our calling to be love and work toward justice, it is imperative for us to understand our heritage as Baptists and our history of dissent.

Lenten Art Project

You are invited during this season of Lent 2017 to reflect on and ponder anew the teachings of our Lord in the beginning of chapter 5 of the Gospel of Matthew.  These celebrated sayings often beginning what the English words, “Blessed are…” might be the most famous of all of Jesus’ words.  Yet, instead of inviting us into a deeper insight, their familiarity can actually lead us into a nearly neglectful form of inattention.  We can be so certain we already “know them.”
