A sermon by Rev. Rebecca White Newgren at Second Congregational UCC / First Presbyterian PCUSA Church of Rockford, Illinois

“We mess up. And God says, ‘That’s okay. I won’t require anything of you… I love you so much that I just want you to be here, to be in relationship with me, so that I won’t require anything of you.’ Who does that? Our gracious, holy, and loving God does that!”
– Rev. Rebecca White Newgren
