RCL Reflection, Day of Pentecost, Year C, June 9, 2019
Thanks be to God for Pentecost and Paul! This annual celebration and the Year C lessons are filled with hope for world-weary and discouraged disciples. Yes indeed, we can lift our heads high in the light of God’s promises and stop wallowing in fear, doubt and self-pity. (Photo: Marianite Pentecost Icon, Creative Commons License. Thanks!)
Day of Pentecost, Year C, May 15, 2016
We may not have visible tongues of fire hover over our heads, we may not experience a wild and woolly Pentecost, but as the church of Christ in this time and in a particular place, we will have occasion to experience renewal and rebirth. (Photo: Pedro, Creative Commons)
This Sunday we celebrate Pentecost, when we hear the story of the early disciples gathered in Jerusalem, and God’s kindling of Spirit fire in their lives. Don’t let people think it’s something God did only once, oh-so-long ago. God continues to ignite flames of faith and passion in our midst today.
