An Ingathering of the Supremely Good

Seattle Mennonite Church Sermons

We start our new year with the Narrative Lectionary “In the [very] beginning…” (a very good place to start…). The first creation account, in Genesis chapter one, reveals a Creator God who creates and co-creates, makes and beckons forth life. And God sees all that comes to be and declares: “good, good, good, good, good, good, and SUPREMELY good.” Today is a good day to remember that “supremely good” is our original condition, our birthright, our truest and deepest core.

Sermon begins at minute 6:54.
