Sabbath School From Home

Thinking about "singing the Lord's song in a strange land" makes us wonder what feels normal and what feels strange. 

Exile in a foreign land is a substantial theme for many biblical authors, and the lesson this week applies the idea to our sin-bound world. This resonates with our calling to enter God's Kingdom, but it seems possible to get too carried away with this analogy. Is sin becoming more prominent in society, or less? Is the world becoming more of a strange land, or more of the homely Kingdom? Maybe the challenge is to reflect on what kinds of places feel most like home and what that says about us.

What is Sabbath School From Home?

Sabbath School is perhaps the most communal and participatory element of a regular Seventh-day Adventist church event (after foot-washing), but social distancing has us all isolated at home. This is a weekly Sabbath School styled conversation on Biblical themes and passages. Join in the conversation by writing comments/questions to sabbathschoolfromhome@gmail.com .
