After the Election

Our Sunday morning journey through Romans finds us aptly at Romans 13:1-7, a scripture in which the Apostle Paul addresses Christians and the state.  His message is that we must respect it!  I will talk about the entire context of the passage in church on Sunday and hope you will find insight and encouragement.  However you are feeling regarding the outcome of this election, and I know that our opinions are varied at CCOV UCC, I want to remind you that we are not defined by the outcome of this election—but by the God whom we follow.  God’s reign is the only one that is ultimate and eternal.  We are called to live in unity in a governed community, to appreciate the good that we have, and to be agents of change when we see oppression around us.
