This summer we’re going to walk through 1 Corinthians 13 phrase by phrase, considering both the nature of love, and how to embody it. It’ll be ugly at times, because none of us are touching the way of life in this chapter. But it will be hopeful, because we can see real growth in love, individually and as a community.

For our Signs sermon series we had several artists from New City represent the sign in their artwork. Sadly we had to cease meeting together in the midst of the series but here are the pieces and brief descriptions from the sermons shared in the series either in person or via our house church liturgies. Thanks to all the artists who encouraged us by using their gifts to create these delightful works!

Hope you all are having a good end to the week. Here's the best of what we saw online this week. :: Christopher Hitchens has died: Outspoken atheist writer and public intellectual Christopher Hitchens died on Thursday night. Doug Wilson, his old debate partner, has written a fantastic obituary you really must read. Seriously, go read it right now. Justin Taylor also has a good blog post, including a video highlighting a scene with Hitchens talking to Wilson in a car, discussing what he thinks are the strengths of the Theistic worldview and why he wouldn't exactly wish for a world completely free from religion.

Each week we’re trying to give one option for “working out your faith” in a practical way. Think about the C.S. Lewis quote, “We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade the presence of God. The world is crowded with him… The real labor is to remember, to attend. In fact, to come away. Still more, to remain awake” (C.S. Lewis, Letters to Malcolm).
