Having come through the “safer-at-home” directives for the COVID-19 pandemic this spring (we pray we have come through), or perhaps on the threshold of another quarantine this fall (if the reported surge in the virus comes to pass), it seems a perfect time for a worship series titled “Nothing Shall Separate Us!” And we do it without irony. We do it with confident faith, as Paul did in Romans, chapter 8. This chapter is so profound that more than one series could come from these words. But we offer this series now as a reminder that no matter what the world might throw at us, no matter what our own brokenness might uncover, no matter how far we may feel from everyone and from God, we are confident that, as the body of Christ, nothing shall separate us.
