A Word from Andrew... Gospel in an Age of Disconnection
Dear Pine Street Church Members and Friends,
I write you from the 2018 Annual Gathering of the American Baptist Churches of the Rocky Mountains in Breckenridge, CO. The theme of The Gathering is, "Gospel in an Age of Disconnection."
The focus question is, "Across our theological and contextual differences, how do we address a growing disconnect between church and culture?"
The question is timely as we are at a pivotal moment in the relationship of Christianity and U.S. culture. As many cultural commentators have noted, "The sky is not falling, but the ground is shifting beneath our feet."
I am grateful to be part of this spiritual community as we learn fresh ways to link our faith to the issues and trends of our contemporary culture.
For example, just this year, we have installed our new Pine Street Church Art Gallery, which creates the opportunity to engage our congregation with the greater arts-centric Boulder community. We have hosted the 2018 Boulder International Fringe Festival, being "Fringe-central" for 22 performing arts companies who showcase artists who are literally on doing their art on the "fringes" of our mainstream society.
Last week, we began our Sunday message series, "Binge-worthy," as we explore religious and spiritual themes in the long-running NBC television show, "The West Wing." We will continue the series this coming Sunday at 10am, showing video clips from the show during the sermon and connecting Scripture to vital issues of our time.
I've quoted Madeleine L'Engle many times lately who writes, "There is nothing so secular that it cannot be sacred." I find the truth of these words to be more and more profound.
As we live into the future individually and as a church, and as we live from "imagination" and not just "memory," let us keep our eyes peeled for beauty, truth, and goodness all around us. Let us notice and name opportunities to embody God's active and imaginative presence in the everyday language of our lives to create more of that beauty, truth, and goodness we learn from the wisdom of Jesus.
On the journey with you,
Andrew

2018 BOULDER CROP HUNGER WALK
|
Crop Walk 2018
Hunger is one of the greatest injustices facing our world, but it doesn't have to be this way. Ending hunger is possible, and it is possible in our lifetime. You can help make it happen.
For nearly half a century, CROP Hunger Walks have ensured that more people worldwide have access to nutritious, sustainable food sources. From combating droughts in Nicaragua to providing agricultural training in Indonesia to stocking shelves in hundreds of food pantries across the United States, CROP Hunger Walks help end hunger by raising funds to support local food programs and the international anti-hunger work of Church World Service.
Stand with neighbors in your community who rely on food assistance programs. Partner with parents worldwide as they ensure a bright future for their children. Support those struggling in the face of grinding poverty and open up new doors of opportunity for them.
This year's walk is on
Sunday October 21st. If you're interested in sponsoring this years walk by participating as a walker please
contact Debbie Setlock for a registration form. Be sure to use our Pine Street CHurch Team Page to join our team and help us meet our
church wide goal of $5,000!
Click here to find our church team page and follow links to register yourself and begin collecting pledges online today!
