Curious about 2010 & Beyond? We hope so! This strategic-planning initiative is more than just a one-year or even five-year planning process. With 2010 & Beyond, Plymouth is engaging each member of its family to share his or her thoughts, ideas and dreams for Plymouth's long-term future.
As we embark on this spiritual journey to help create an even stronger church, we have created a special web page that describes the entire process and how you can participate. Click here or on the logo above to learn more.
Grammar of Grace
“Phile…what?”
You might be saying that to yourself if you noticed our scripture text for this Labor Day weekend. Philemon is not the most famous book in the Bible, and it can’t even claim to be the shortest (that honor goes to 3 John, if you count the words and if you care about such things), but it is brief…and fascinating. In it, Paul—by now an old man and a prisoner—tries to persuade an old friend (Philemon) to take back a runaway slave. In the process of persuasion, Paul works out his own grammar of grace. And we, along with Philemon, get to decide what to do next.
Join us this weekend for worship at Plymouth Church – 5:30 p.m. on Saturday with the Saturday Night band; and Sunday at 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. with music from Edwin Griffith. Jeanette Brodersen will preach on Saturday; Stephanie Haskins will preach on Sunday. All are welcome!
