Wise, Foolish or Wanted?
Worship, Nov 8, 8:30 & 11am
VIDEO. Sometimes things don’t end up going the way you expected them to go. In the Parable of the Ten Bridesmaids, Jesus makes it clear that living as if ‘there’s always a tomorrow’ isn’t realistic. And yet living as if you can prepare for every eventuality is also unrealistic. As Rev. Elizabeth Graham notes, it leaves us with the question of what Jesus’ “keep awake” truly means.
