When people with privilege fail to listen to others, we are getting in the way of God’s justice and healing in the world.

Focus text: John 5:1-9

We hear a story of one Jesus’s most faithful disciples learning that the laws he has followed his whole life no longer apply. What do we gain when we follow a new way? What do we lose?

This week Pastor Dawn encourages us to look closely at Psalm 23 as we broke into pairs to discuss it together. This recording includes the introduction and a summary of the discussions, as well as teaching from Pastor Dawn.

You may also want to explore Psalm 23 with these directions either alone, with a partner, or with a group.

1. Read Psalm 23
2. Share what this psalm means to you. Perhaps it raises a certain memory. Share that if you feel comfortable.
3. You can also try these questions.
   1. How is God described in this psalm?
   2. This psalm names a lot of different settings-the dining room, by a still lake, a dark valley. Where do you find yourself right now? What is the hope God offers in that place? How could that hope be present in your life right now?

This morning, Pastor Dawn announced her resignation and her move to St. John’s Anglican Church, West Toronto. Her announcement was followed by a response by David Berg, our Council Chair, sharing about what to expect in the near future. We have included the announcement here, along with Pastor Dawn’s sermon, which you can find around 13:50. We apologise for the poor audio quality of the sermon.
