Sunday, September 8, 2024 | Pastor Julie | Our Deadly Systems

Today in worship, Pastor Julie will begin the series “Am I the One?” and preach the message “Our Deadly Systems.” from Matthew 26:17-25. In Matthew 26:22, after Jesus said, “One of you will betray me,” the disciples all asked, “Am I the One?” Accompanying scripture passages are Psalm 126 and James 2:1-10, 14-17.

In Jerusalem in C.E. 30, three cultural and religious systems contributed to the crucifixion of Jesus: Conservatism, Liberalism, and Hedonism. These same systems are alive and well in 2024, and this series and message will prompt personal and corporate reflection on the ways that we participate in the deadly systems of this world.
