Current Conditions:SO HOW SHOULD WE TREAT EACH OTHER?
In our world globalization continues to erode boundaries erected by geography and distance. The space that once separated different ethnic groups and languages continues to shrink – often to the point of discomfort. We encounter our neighbors as foreigners and feel like strangers in our own homes. Customs and cultures clash.
So how should we treat each other? The biblical tradition says, “Show love for foreigners” (philoxenia versus xenophobia – Romans 12, Hebrews 13). Indeed, nations are governed by law, and legitimately regulate their borders and immigration. But there is a higher law to which human law is accountable. It holds the people of God to a high standard. “When a foreigner lives with you in your land, do not mistreat him. The foreigner living with you must be treated as one of your native-born. Love him as yourself, for you too were once foreigners.” (Leviticus 19)
The fun starts on March 9th at 8pm at Good Shepherd. See Amy Boewe for all information and tickets! Sign up is required!
27 hours of worship, music, and friends! An inspirational weekend event! See Amy for tickets!
"The Neighborhood Has Changed"
The 2010 Census revealed the under 18 population of Tulsa to be 40% White, 25% Hispanic, 20% Black, 10% Asian and “Other”, and 5% Native American. The neighborhood has changed. The whole world is moving next door, and one of the most important challenges facing churches in Oklahoma is how to share the Gospel with these new neighbors effectively.
The presentation will be by Rev. John Loum, Director of the Ethnic Immigrant Institute of Theology (EIIT) at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis.
Where: Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, 8730 E. Skelly Drive in Tulsa
When: February 18th, 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. (a light lunch will be served)
Please register in advance by contacting Pastor Leonard Busch at lbusch@gslctulsa.org.
