November 7, 2021 // Intimacy with God: Feet and Vines

WildWords: Sermons from Wildwood Mennonite Church

Footwashing? As in, the ritual that some churches do once a year during Holy Week? That's about following Jesus' example in humility and service, the status and work of the servant and their master flipped upside down. That's true, but it's not the whole story. The footwashing story of John's gospel (ch 13) is also about intimacy, knowing and being known. We're well practiced in the serving and giving piece; are we also willing to receive?
