July 3, 2022 // Roots & Wings: looking for Good in the beliefs I’ve left behind - Part 1

WildWords: Sermons from Wildwood Mennonite Church

What's hiding in the back of your spiritual closet? Faith can be like building a spiritual wardrobe of various beliefs: trying some on for just a little while, wearing some for particular seasons, or selecting some basics as foundations for any outfit. As our needs and tastes change over time, what do we do with the pieces of faith that no longer fit? Do we look back at former beliefs with... fondness? resentment? shame? This summer, our sermon series invites us to engage with the faith of our past, particularly understandings of God that (some of us?) are leaving behind. Up first, the "doctrine of Original Sin" - buckle up, wretches!
