East Brentwood Presbyterian Church (Metro Nashville)

5th Sunday in Lent, Everything [in] between righteousness and mercy. 
John R. Hilley, preaching. How do you define righteousness? Mercy? And who deserves it? When it comes to you, do you tend to emphasize one more than the other? And when it comes to God? “God has a really bad habit of using people we don’t approve of,” Rachel Held Evans (influential blogger and NY Times bestselling author) once said. “What makes the gospel offensive is not who it keeps out, but who it lets in.” Scripture: The story of Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10) Communion celebrated. Commissioning of medical mission volunteers to Guatemala.

In person and Livestreaming @EastBrentwoodPC and on our YouTube Channel. To give to the ministry of the church: Ways to Give.  

"Seasons of Hope" (A film prepared by Owen Coulam, EBPC Youth Elder)

“I am with you to deliver you, says the Lord.”
—Jeremiah 1:8

[In] between our Intention and Our Action

Lent is a season that invites us to be intentional.

How will you grow closer to God and your neighbor?

It is a time of strength training: what will you do to strengthen your faith? In this special Ash Wednesday episode we look at the space in our lives between our good intentions and our actions. This 24 minute episode includes scripture, liturgy around the imposition of ashes and a contemplative musical piece by Nate Strasser.
