God on the Move: A Worship Series on Technology and Innovation

In this season of fast-moving technology, it is easy for faith to feel like it is falling behind. But innovation and technology have always been part of the human experience of God and faith. God’s Spirit constantly moves to inspire us and bring us together in community. This 3 week worship series explores different technologies employed in the Bible and church history- from Paul riding on a ship to Martin Luther and other reformers using the printing press to jump start the reformation. This series includes 3 original liturgies, title graphics, planning guide with hymn suggestions, promotional blurbs, and sermon starters. Pairs well with God on the Move: Faith and Democracy.

All:       In this worship, we will imagine how to travel in new ways with our minds and hearts.
