God Chooses An Imperfect Family

Due to the Covid-19 virus, Crossroads UMC has canceled all worship services and large group activities until further notice.  Please join us in worshipping online during this time.

Summer is a time for family reunions. For some, family reunions are fun and fulfilling. For others, they are uncomfortable or even painful. We all have some dysfunction in our families. We have stories that we’d rather not tell. In the stories of Genesis, we discover God’s chosen family – those first generations of Israel – had struggles, secrets, sibling rivalries, and even threats of murder. As we explore these rich and ancient stories, we see how God works through and in spite of family dysfunction to bring about God’s purposes for the world, and we find hope for God’s presence and movement in our own families.
