Loving and Learning in Lodi February 16 2020
Dr. Seuss’ book, The Zax, is the
shortest book of this sermon series…yet, it packs a powerful lesson for us in
just a few short pages as we look for the Spirit’s ‘Ah-ha’s’!!
See
you Sunday, as we listen for God’s voice…

“You have heard that it was said to
those who lived long ago, Don’t commit murder and all who commit murder will be
in danger of judgment. But I say to you that everyone who is angry with their
brother or sister will be in danger of judgment. If they say to their brother
or sister, ‘You idiot,’ they will be in danger of being condemned by the
governing council. And if they say, ‘You fool,’ they will be in danger of fiery
hell. Therefore, if you bring your gift to the altar and there remember that
your brother or sister has something against you, leave your gift at the altar
and go. First make things right with your brother or sister and then come back
and offer your gift.”
