Worship Service for February 9, 2025

Today we hear of Isaiah, who calls himself "a man of unclean lips." We read as Paul asks the rhetorical question, "What am I to do?" And we identify with Peter, who confesses, "I am a sinful man, O Lord." In short, we recognize that these people are just like us! But like all three, we have already been caught by our gracious God. Isaiah was called to write for God, Paul's pen brought the Gospel to the early church, and Peter led the disciples in spite of himself. With them, we have been caught in the "net," the good news of God's love and forgiveness. Today our worship is designed to move us outward, to fish for people who feel unclean, don't know what to do, and are leaderless; people who have not yet realized God's gracious love.
