It's a wonderful moment when a Christian actually wakes up to realize that "the Story" isn't about someone else someplace else, but integrally includes each of us wherever we happen to be. We cannot afford to be spectators, cannot sit on the sidelines while others take an active part, but we each need to make ourselves ready to take up our part of the story as our turn comes.
Rev. John Thomas, General Minister and President of the UCC, was in Florida over the weekend to take part in and to preach the sermon at the installation of Rev. Kent Siladi, our new Conference Minister.
Rev. Thomas took time to remind his listeners--and now readers have the chance--to think of ourselves and our role--as individuals and as members of congregations--in "the Story." To read the text of his sermon, CLICK HERE.
