“Turn, Turn, Turn” - Most of us, at least those of us who are children of the 60s, that's not everyone I know. We have a soundtrack of our lives that we often don't think of. The music that played in the background during fundamental years that formed our opinions. Thirty years ago there was a movie that came out - Forest Gump. That movie was all the more entertaining because it had a soundtrack that followed all of the historic events the movie touched on. I guarantee you no young man of draft age, who grew up during the Vietnam War, that doesn't go back in time whenever they hear the song, 'Fortunate Son' by Creedence Clearwater Revival. It takes them back in time. One of the more impactful songs for me had to be 'Turn, Turn, Turn' written by Bob Seger and popularized by The Byrds back in 1965. I actually said something not quite true...we say it was written by Bob Seger, but we know only the last two lines were written by Bob Segar. The other lines in the song were plagiarized from Solomon in the Book of Ecclesiastes. And, that is our scripture for today.
At Easter this year the message focused on how God stands ready, able, longing to offer us amazing new life. Better life than we can possibly imagine for ourselves. But, for that new life to happen so often, just like Jesus on Good Friday, we have to be willing to let go of some old things. Some things we've been hanging on to, some old ways that have to end before new beginnings can take place. For months now I've been talking to the Session here about how to end my time as pastor of the congregation...Worship Video HERE.
