Isaiah 58 contains a soul searching call to God’s people to be a Godly community. The chapter cradles its message between the language of the Day of Atonement and the sign of God’s people, the Sabbath – judgment and worship! The questions are posed – what does God ask in judgment and what is true worship? The answer is not religious practice but care for those in need. Jesus says the same thing in Matt 25. But at the core of this call to be a caring community is these words – “…and not turning your back on your own” [v7].

Llew Edwards uses his annual visioning Sabbath to shares some principles of the Crieff Adventist Church vision –  being a faith community that  exhibits faith in God, faith in one another, creating a community that honors the heart of God.
