Listening for Guidance

By northhp

Welcome to our service today as we continue to explore how God’s light breaks into the world through this season of Epiphany. We will be looking at the story of the call of the prophet Samuel, which I guess could also be called the story of the repudiation of the priest, Eli, who was Samuel’s guardian and mentor. The story is about where wisdom may be found, and what we can learn from people who are flawed or just may not be “our cup of tea.”

Thank you, too, to those who are contributing to our service: Sandy Woodworth, Leslie Michalak, Carolyn Maule, Katharine Krul and Diane Murray-Charrett.

About northhp

As of 2019, I will have been in ministry for 30 years (what the United church calls paid accountable service, 35 if you include those that were unpaid and accountable to a higher power, most of the time) serving the Mildmay-Neustadt Lutheran Parish, ON; St. Paul Lutheran Church, St. Laurent, QC; St. James United Church, Etobicoke, ON; and my current position with St. John's United Church of Georgetown and Glen Williams, ON. My areas of interest include Faith Formation/Christian Education, Spiritual Practices, making practical connections between faith and life, Biblical Studies (in particular the role of story in shaping or authoring our lives) and the role of spiritual practices in promoting and enhancing health.
