Listening with Awareness
Worship Service: Sermon only - October 17, 2021
This week we begin a new Journey series on listening, "Tell Me More". Being wisely kind to others involves listening to them. It is hard to be helpful if you don't know what another person is thinking and why. In Exodus 2 we read about how Pharoah's daughter noticed a basket floating at a distance. Sensing its potential importance, she had a servant get it, finding the baby Moses within. Her seeing, listening, and responding were essential for the Lord's plan to lead the Israelites out of slavery. The "Tell Me More" series runs from October 17 to November 7, 2021. | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell | Bryn Athyn Cathedral
