BTW or “By The Way”: a description of direction and an interruption of flow. The phrase “by the way” interrupts our movement and introduces a new idea. Oftentimes, God works “by the way”. However, we can become distracted from God’s work. We’re so busy on our way to a richer life and greater peace, we don’t recognize that we are already by it. In a way we can’t understand, God will disrupt us from our distraction not only to change our perception but to change our direction. When life doesn’t go as planned, it’s not always a failure on our part, but rather God’s “by the way”.
Tune in with Rev. Jake Steele and CUMC for part one of a two-part sermon as we examine the gospel of Luke and learn that as we walk through life, God is working within it. BTW…
