Ordinary Time | Luke 1:39-55 at Common Table: Summer Symposium w/Claire Hitchins
Description
Common Table's July 13, 2025 sermon. Ordinary Time - Luke 1:39-55 // Summer Symposium worship series w/Claire Hitchins, RISC Associate Organizer.
How are we called to engage at the intersection of faith and justice? We may sense that our current politics are empty of holy virtues like mercy and compassion, but what is our faith-full witness in these troubling times? To echo Gandhi, how can we be the change we would see in the world?
Listen as our Summer Symposium worship series begins with Claire Hitchins, a Richmond resident and real life community organizer whose Christian faith drives her work for justice in the city. Claire reflects on Mary's Magnificat in Luke 1. Mary's song in praise of God's surprising justice motivates Claire's work with RISC, which incorporates dozens of local congregations in political advocacy--including us at Common Table!
