Faith
The search for meaning, purpose, and relationship. Our need for love compels us to seek it out, and when we find it, share it.
-
In reading of Jesus’s visit to the synagogue, we are given a mirror to hold up to ourselves and see what we’d rather not.
-
Gospel, like “good news” is loaded. And WE don’t always like it. But the question was never whether we like it.
-
When Jesus keeps the wine flowing at the wedding party, we get a chance to adjust our expectations in a surprising way.
-
Jesus famously turns water into wine. But the greatness of the miracle is not that he can do it. But that he does.
-
It is hard to square a posture that leans away from change when the gospel itself is fundamentally about change.
-
When we celebrate the baptism of Jesus, we are remembering why this, rather than birth, is the beginning of his, and our, story.
