Inter-dependence Day

Check out Second Presbyterian Church! 

Read Matthew 10:40-42. 

 

Sermon excerpt: 

“We woke up this morning in a bed someone else made. We showered in water that some else delivered to our homes – [homes] which someone else built. We put on clothes that are the work of others’ hands; ate a meal someone else grew, harvested, shipped, [and] inspected ….  We got into cars … that others engineered, built and tested for safety” [and drove] along roads that others designed and maintain.[1]

As much as we cling to our fierce independence, the truth is … our lives are very much interdependent on the people around us and even on people we’ll never meet.
