Bent Into Shape by God

What bends us out of shape—and what helps us stand tall again? In this sermon on Luke 13:10–17, Pastor Beth explores the healing power of mercy as something essential—not optional—in the life of faith. From Jesus healing a bent-over woman in the synagogue to how we treat those held in places like "Alligator Alcatraz," this message challenges us to see every person as beloved and worthy of dignity. Mercy isn’t weakness—it’s a reflection of God's justice and love. And it’s something we all need to both receive and share.
