Why having low expectations in life to avoid disappointment is a bad plan

January 16, 2021 By 2

The virtual service for 17 January 2021 is available on this page. It is the Second Sunday after the Epiphany.

The service includes scripture readings, prayers, a sermon and, below the video further down, a musical selection chosen by Kath Robertson.

The Lectionary readings this week are: 1 Samuel 3:1-20 and Psalm 139:1-6, 13-18;
1 Corinthians 6:12-20 and John 1:43-51. Geoff reads these as part of the service.

The sermon is based on the text from John’s Gospel and that Bible passage set out below for you. It is the story of how Jesus called Philip and Nathanael as disciples.

Rev. Geoff McKee contrasts different commentators’ views and reflects on whether meagre expectations of life serve us best or, as he argues, if we’re not expecting so much more than that then we cannot live as we have been made to live.
