For Sunday
-
When Jesus asks the disciples who he is, it isn’t so much a test, but an opportunity to witness, to share, to embody relationship.
-
The parable of the sower can feel like perfectionism: Goldilocks meets self-help. It isn’t about making ourselves ideal. It’s about becoming whole.
-
Jesus sounds off on the people who aren’t getting with the program. Is this like our own complaints, or is it something else?
-
In the Day of Pentecost, we celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit with great pomp and circumstance, but it relationship remains central.
-
In the Sunday between the Ascension and Pentecost, we continue to focus on the thing that Jesus wants us to hear: it’s about relationship.
-
In the Farewell Discourse, Jesus speaks to his followers about leaving, about what is coming, and about the trust that’s involved.
