This four-week series, October 8 - 29, will serve as a preview of our upcoming Focus on Faith weekend (November 1-3) with Dr. Mark Labberton. Together we will study his book, The Dangerous Act of Worship: Living God’s Call to Justice, in which he describes the disconnection he sees between worship and justice in today’s church. Dr. Labberton challenges us to rediscover worship that not only transforms our hearts but also moves us to act on behalf of the poor, the oppressed, and the forgotten.
