1 17 th Sunday after Pentecost September 16, 2018 ST. JOHN S UNITED CHURCH WELCOME! A warm welcome is extended to all. Your presence enriches both us and this time of celebration together. He asked them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered him, "You are the Messiah." Mark 8: 29 Whether or not they believe in God, whether or not they find God an attractive notion, most people have an idea of God, an idea that tends to center on power. God is all-powerful, omnipotent, God is in charge of everything. God is like a king, and one who rules as an absolute monarch. God is like a father, and a patriarchal, domineering father at that... The Christian gospel, however, starts its understanding of God from a very different place. To read the biblical narratives is to encounter a God who is, first of all, love. Love involves a willingness to put oneself at risk, and God is in fact vulnerable in love, vulnerable even to great suffering. William C. Placher Narratives of a Vulnerable God The bulletin is dedicated in Loving Memory of Peggy Hebert by her Family

5 WORSHIP (The congregation is invited to join in responses printed in bold) PRELUDE TELL ME THE OLD, OLD STORY Robert H. Hughes TELL ME THE STORIES OF JESUS William H. Parker/Fanny Crosby WE GATHER IN THE SPIRIT OF COMMUNITY WELCOME & ANNOUNCEMENTS CALL TO WORSHIP Jesus asks the disciples: Who do people say I am? They answer, "Some say John the Baptist; some say Elijah; and others say one of the prophets." But Jesus presses them: Who do you say I am? Peter answers, "You are Christ God s anointed one, God-with-us!" Now Jesus pushes us: What about you? Here, in this moment, in this community, Who do you say I am? Where do we find the wisdom to answer? PRAYER OF INVOCATION Holy Wisdom of God You call to us from the depths of our hearts, where we long for connection with you and with one another. You call to us from busy streets and neighbourhoods, Where human pain and possibility are most urgent. You call to us from our sacred stories, where God, Christ, Spirit create, challenge, comfort. Guide us, we pray, on an adventure of hope, and help us see with your eyes the ways which lead to beloved community where Christ Jesus is at the center. 5

6 CONFESSION Christ calls on us to lose our life in order to save it ; To take up our cross and follow in the ways of justice and peace. Like the disciples before us, we are often amazed and overwhelmed by this command. We close our ears to such challenge and our hearts to such risk. SOLO IF I HAVE WOUNDED ANY SOUL TODAY Battersby/Gabriel Soloist, Garth Steeves Lyrics to silently read along as Garth sings: If I have wounded any soul today, If I have caused one foot to go astray, If I have walked in my own wilful way, Dear Lord, forgive! If I have uttered idle words or vain, If I have turned aside from want or paint, Lest I offend some other through the strain, Dear Lord, forgive! Forgive the sins I have confessed to thee; Forgive the secret sins I do not see; O guide me, love me, and my keeper be. Amen. (Moment of silence and reflection.) ASSURANCE OF PARDON God s words and actions are never careless; In sending Jesus Christ to the world, God offers a model and a companion, A source of ever-flowing love and acceptance and wisdom. In Christ we are forgiven all our failings, and given strength to start again. HYMN # 264 IMMORTAL, INVISIBLE, GOD ONLY WISE (ST DENIO) CHILDREN S TIME Children up to age 12 yrs. are now invited to go to our Sunday School program time. If you are a child here for the first time, please feel welcome to join the children s group upstairs, or remain here for the rest of the service. If you are a parent or caregiver, there are a kitchen and washrooms on the main and upstairs levels, as well as a diaper changing area upstairs. Please feel free to return to the service at any time. 6

7 WE REFLECT UPON OUR COMMON STORY SCRIPTURE LESSONS Proverbs 1:20-33 Wisdom cries in the streets. Psalm 19 (VU p ) The heavens declare the glory of God. Mark 8:27 38 Who do people say that I am? God's story is for all people. It is ours to receive and share. HYMN # 703 IN THE BULB THERE IS A FLOWER (PROMISE) SERMON WE RESPOND TO GOD S LOVE CALL FOR THE OFFERING The psalmist declares, The heavens are telling the glory of God. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night declares knowledge. Let us share our gifts so that we can also partake in telling others of God s glory. OFFERING / ANTHEM THE POTTER Colbert & Joyce Croft OFFERTORY # 115 MV BEHOLD, BEHOLD, I MAKE ALL THINGS NEW (BEHOLD) Behold, behold, I make all things new, beginning with you and starting today. Behold, behold, I make all things new, my promise is true, for I am Christ the way. DEDICATION All-knowing God, teach us to use these gifts to create greater access, insights, and wisdom for people within and outside of these walls. So be it. Amen. PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE & THE LORD S PRAYER HYMN # 705 FOR ALL THE SAINTS (SINE NOMINE) BENEDICTION Let us ponder the challenge of Jesus this week: --Who do we say Christ is in our lives, our community, our world? Let Holy Wisdom shine through all our pondering, and lead us to recognize and serve our Risen Saviour in all our encounters. Amen. 7
