Yes! We're Open: Living Faith with Needham UCC
There Is God (September 7, 2025)
Somewhere along the way, Christianity become professionalized. All too often these days we look to clergy to tell us all about God--most particularly, about where and how God is allowed to show up in our lives. And those "allowed appearances" have become more strictly filtered through the church: "A 'God moment" must look like this but never that, here but never there." But, really, God is everywhere-- even outside the church! even in you! even in the people you like the least!-- and you don't need special training or special glasses to see Them. You just have to be willing to notice the way the trees move when God passes by. (John 3:1-8). Rev. John MacIver Gage, preaching.
