This week, we’re starting off a new series at Fredericktown UMC called “The In-Between.” It seems like all of last year, we were just trying to make it through to Christmas and then to 2021. We were so eager to be out of 2020! Now that we are, though, it doesn’t seem like a lot has changed. We can look back fondly at how things used to be, and we can look ahead to a time when we are past this pandemic, but for right now we are still in-between those two places. And, really, that’s how we are a lot in life: between what was and what is; just trying to live out the now as best we can. How do we, as a church, live up to the calling that has been placed upon us to live out our very best now? What can we take from the past and what can we dream about in the future that helps make what we do in the in-between not just a time of remembering and waiting, but a time of doing, building, restoring, and renewing? Let’s take a look at how to live out our best “in-between.”
