Let us build a house where hands will reach beyond the wood and stone to heal and strengthen, serve and teach, and live the Word they’ve known. (Marty Haugen ©1994)
“Beyond Wood and Stone“ (BWS) is a Bible Study Blogspace dedicated to Cedar Park United Church folk and friends. Its purpose, like the verse of this hymn suggests, is to reach beyond the wood and stone of our building to wherever you are, to help you in your daily living to connect Sunday to the rest of the week, and to connect Scripture to our daily living.
BWS is a “safe space” for exploration of the Bible, designed specifically for our congregation and our friends; all comments get ‘moderated’ by Elisabeth Jones as a way to keep the site ‘safe’ as a place for our collective curiosity, our comments, and above all our questions about Scripture and life.
BWS is designed to become a conversation space: it’s easy to add ‘comments’ to any of the pages or posts. (See the instructions below). Because this is a CPUC site, you’ll know all the people commenting, so you are among friends!!
