Listen More, Speak Less: Humility 2024 09 08

Helotes Hills United Methodist Church

Scripture references: Ephesians 4:1-6 and Matthew 7:12

Sometimes, even if we find it hard to believe, we must claim as truth the Gospel, good news. Together, we find ways to tell deeply good news for all people by filtering our interactions through the lens of humility. Today’s scripture speaks of approaching one another with all humility, gentleness, and patience.” What we put into the world is part of the ongoing creation of the world. Notice the scripture doesn’t say that unity requires agreement, but rather we are to cultivate the qualities that equip us to live in unity regardless of agreement.

Can we begin to believe this is possible?
