Sixth Sunday after Pentecost

Join us as we explore how God engages people through powerful moments of dialogue, decision, and divine direction. Each week, we will examine a different biblical character or moment where a conversation with God—spoken, implied, or lived out—shaped lives, communities, and futures.
For the second week, we hear words from the prophet Amos, who brings a difficult word of judgement to the kingdom of Israel. During an age of prosperity, these ancient people refuse to see the image of God in the poor and vulnerable. They exploit the vulnerable for their own gain and refuse to change their ways.  Through Amos, God brings word of their impending conquest. How do we wrestle with God’s anger in this passage?  Might there be things in the world that we would want God to be angry about?
