Pentecost: It's Our Turn Now! "Adapting to the New Norm"

Our world undergoes perpetual and inevitable change — there is no clearer example of that than the new norm established by the global pandemic. But why the church exists and does what it does remains the same in spite of all the external change brought on by the pandemic, and everyone — whether a pastor or a mere member of the community — still has an equal responsibility to spread the good news to those who need to hear it. Our purpose and mission will never change, but the ways in which we share and express the gospel can and should change. When we stop clinging to rigidity and instead embrace adaptation in the face of change, we discover newer, better, and more miraculous ways through which one lost sheep can find his or her way home.
