In this sermon, we will discuss three different paths that we can take as we move through our lives. It is easy to fall into a default mode, maintaining a sense of familiarity and comfort in our day-to-day lives; life can often feel like this and there is nothing wrong with routines. Sometimes, we are drawn towards personal interests, diving into one hobby after another, seeking a deeper sense of personal fulfillment and self actualisation. This is often an extremely useful and rewarding way of being, but it can at times feel self indulgent and detached from the rest of our community. Occasionally, we are stirred into action, seeing unrest in the world, seeing a place where we can make a difference and give of ourselves even if it makes us a little bit uncomfortable. This third path is often what we refer to when we feel "called" to something. It can be inexplicable, but taking on responsibility and giving much of oursevles can lead us into deeper spirituality and relationship with God. Please join us while we discuss Eli, Samuel and the way that the Bible uses their story to illustrate how we should respond to being called.
