Ten years ago our family went on a month’s trip to southern California with my parents. They wanted to take our kids to Disneyland and we agreed so long as they took us as well. As planning for the trip commenced other ‘must see’ destinations were added to the list, and some destinations were removed from the list. One destination that never left the list was the Crystal Cathedral. For many years my parents had enjoyed the ministry of Robert Schuller and ‘The Hour of Power’ and my dad, particularly, longed to visit the place where Schuller’s broadcasts were made. It is a spectacular building, but sadly it was empty at the time and the only person we met during the whole visit was a wonderful volunteer tour guide.
This week we begin a series about becoming love. God is love and we seek to become more like him. To help us in this pursuit we are going to spend the next couple of months in the book of Romans in the New Testament. Romans is a letter written by the apostle Paul to the church in Rome that he longed to visit but never could. He had heard so much about it, he had friends and acquaintances from the church there, but never got to visit it. Instead he writes this letter containing all that he knows and understands about God, humanity and the way of Jesus.
A few weeks after our visit to the Crystal Cathedral they filed for bankruptcy and a few years later the whole cathedral and campus buildings were sold to the Roman Catholic church - the modern descendants of that very church to whom Paul wrote. Join us online at 10am this Sunday as we begin our consideration of Paul’s words and what it has to teach us about holiness in 2020. #Becominglove #Holinessin2020 #Romans
