Wholehearted Love

This Sunday in our study of Deuteronomy we will hear the Shema, Israel’s central confession: “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength” (Deut. 6:4–5). At the very center of faith is love—love for God that overflows in love for neighbor. In an age discipled by violence and contempt, Deuteronomy reminds us that God’s people are called to be shaped by love, embodying a different way of being human together.

Life on the Borderlands

This Sunday we’ll kick off a new sermon series with you on the book of Deuteronomy. While many know this as the book with not much storyline and a whole lot of laws, this is very likely the book that most significantly formed the theology and ethics of Jesus, and so it is worth it for us to do the hard work of learning what is has to say.
