Description: 
  • Know Yourself, Trinity Lutheran Church, Brattleboro, VT, July 16, 2023
  •  
  • Matthew 13:  Jesus taught:  A farmer scattered seeds - some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil.  It sprang up quickly…  and they withered because they had no root.  
  •  
  • The question to ask ourselves - What are the rocks in the soil of my life that I need to address?  Do I try to impress people? Am I ultra competitive? Do I like to buy, buy, buy? Do I seek admiration via my dress or accomplishments? 
  •  
  • Cultivating the soil of my life means dealing with those rocks. The seeds of goodness – of care for my self (in healthy ways) and care for others - will have a hard time germinating if there are those rocks in the way. Know your self. It is a step in allowing the Spirit of God to blossom in our lives.
  •  
  • Pastor Jon Heydenreich presides, with Kris Grotz-Kuch assisting, and Laura Josephs on piano.
  •  
  • No matter who you are in your walk of faith, or where you are in that journey, you are invited to the communion table at Trinity Lutheran Church. Trinity Lutheran Church is an ELCA congregation, more or less traditional and relaxed, and a Reconciling in Christ congregation where all are welcome.
