Country Roads

August 22, 2021

I've spent a lot of time looking at iconic songs for our summer series and it will come as no surprise that the number one topic of our shared songbook is...love. By my count, though, the topic in second place is quite surprising...home. We want country roads to take us home "to the place we belong, West Virginia." We want to be "home for Christmas" or in our "sweet home Alabama." It seems we all share a common ache: this longing to go home. Where is home for you? Can you go home again? If home is a place, how do we get there? John Denver's quintessential song leads us home, this Sunday morning at Mendham Hills.
