Trees of Life: 

Stories, Place, and Apocalypse

  Later, I remember leaves, through car windows,

through bedroom windows, through the classroom window,

the way they shaded and patterned the ground, all that

            power from roots. Imagine you must survive

without running? I’ve come from the lacing patterns of leaves,

  I do not know where else I belong.

-Ada Limon, excerpt from "Ancestors"

The biblical canon is full of stories of trees--from Genesis all the way to Revelation. But what are we to do with these stories? With these trees? Both the metaphorical realities of trees but also tangible, material realities, too? What wisdom do these trees of life offer us in this particular time and place?


For our first fall series, we will be spending intentional time with trees, both inside and outside the worship gathering, daring to trust trees deepen our faith, deepen our understanding of place, and deepen the invitations of what it means to live through these times.

Scripture & DIALOGUE Questions

All are invited to hear and discern the Word of God together in dialogue at Emmaus Way each week. While the communal and embodied experience of dialogical preaching can't quite be recreated outside of the Sunday gathering, follow along here with the scripture passages and dialogue questions that are guiding our weekly conversations.
