10-27-24 - Vultures that bring Life!

The readings for this week for the 23rd Sunday after Pentecost are Job 42:1-6, 10-17 and Psalm 34:1-8, (19-22), or Jeremiah 31:7-9 and Psalm 126, with Hebrews 7:23-28, and Mark 10:46-52.  The readings for this week for Reformation Sunday are: Jeremiah 31:31-34, Psalm 46, Romans 3:19-28, and John 8:31-36.  This week we discuss how important it is for us to overlook different parts of God's creation, especially apex predators like Vultures and Wolves.  Issues arise that affect all of us and unless we humble ourselves it makes it quite easy for us to repeat Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

Remember to answer this week's question:

How can we think about things in generations instead of shorter time frames?

How can we look for the long haul instead of the short-term?
