Living Between Two Tables

Published: Oct. 24, 2019, 4 p.m.

This Sunday, the nineteenth Sunday after Pentecost, we will continue our sermon series on the Book of Deuteronomy. The series is entitled Words for People on the Border.  

The text we will explore is Deuteronomy 8:1-19; a passage that catches the people on the border between the realities of wilderness and promise, scarcity and abundance, dependence and complacency. In each reality God was with and would be with the people, but Moses fears that the people may just forget God. Moses fears that abundance in the land of promise will lead to an amnesia in which the people will forget their need for God. Such forgetting would spell disaster, destruction, and death for the people.
