Stephen Addcox and Todd Best just launched a new adult education class on work – The Six Day Worker: Grasping for Meaning in Work. This class is a seminar style reading group in which class participants will read selected essays and poems prior to class meetings on Sunday mornings. In an effort to effectively distribute the readings electronically, the leaders are curating a blog that will host the weekly selections. The blog will also make it possible for those who cannot attend but remain interested to read along at their own pace.

The blog can be found at: http://thesixdayworker.wordpress.com/. The class meets at 10am on Sundays in Room 124.

Readings for this week:

Jan. 22: Work Worth Pursuing
Dorothy Sayers, “Why Work?” and Annie Dillard, “Living like Weasels”
 

The confidence of Psalm 23 is that of one who is steeped in the theology of God’s care for His people in the early days, when God made His covenant with them. David knows that God. And since He is the eternal shepherd, His people are not surprised to find Him as the New Testament shepherd too: the good Shepherd, the great Shepherd, the chief Shepherd who will one day appear with ‘glory that will never fade away’, and who ‘will lead them to springs of living water.’

— Derek Kidner
Cf John 10:11; Hebrews 13:20; 1 Peter 5:4; Revelation 7:17.

 

Just a heads up to everyone:

This Sunday’s Youth Group, January 22nd, is high school only. Since most of the middle schoolers are going on the retreat this weekend and will be exhausted, we’re making Sunday night for high school youth only. High schoolers, come on out. 6 to 8 PM at the church. There will be games, food, one high school youth will share a testimony, and another will do a short lesson. Lots of hanging. Lots of fun. Hope to see you there.
