June 9 – Third Sunday after Pentecost
1 Samuel 8:4-11, 16-20 | Mark 3:20-35

Leadership is a daunting task. Responsibility upon responsibility is overwhelming, and the desire to accomplish often threatens what is best for those whom we lead. It is natural to look at the examples of our heroes, but authentic leadership comes when the Holy Spirit guides us. Leadership is redefined when we follow first. We are presented with an example of God’s Spirit leading in ways that are subversive to human expectations in Mark 3:20-35. The mark of God’s leadership seems to be a reversal of human ways. What does that reveal about your perspectives on leadership? Where do you see God’s upside-down work in the world?

Spirit will be sharing in music leadership this morning. You are invited to wear orange as a public witness in support of gun violence prevention.
