A New Year's Day message based on Colossians 3:12-17.
After the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future have each paid Ebeneezer Scrooge a visit, Scrooge makes this vow, “I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year." In moving from Christmas, which we celebrated last Sunday, to New Year's this Sunday, I think that Scrooges' pledge is very apropos for us to consider today.
Based on Ephesians 4:22-5:2 this message simply asks what it might mean for a community to make practicing Random Acts of Kindness a central part of its identity.
