Why are you a Christ follower? Do you have a clear, concise answer that you can adapt to meet folks where they are? If not, may this week’s lessons give you some ideas, some courage, and some confidence that you can share the good news at any age and stage of life.

RCL Reflection, 5th Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany, Year B, Feb. 4, 2018
This week’s Old Testament lesson and gospel lesson remind us that we all stand in need of healing, renewal, and rest, and that the source of that rest is God. Even Jesus knew to recharge his batteries in prayer and time apart. (Photo: Hernan Pinera, Creative Commons)
Fifth Sunday after Epiphany, Year B, February 8, 2015
How we approach our work, our sense of wholeness and balance, and our mission to love God and serve neighbor in all that we do is part of stewardship. It’s worth considering. It’s important to talk about. And it’s key to one’s discipleship journey and the life of faith. This week’s gospel provides one such opportunity to do so. (Photo: FaceMePLS, Creative Commons)
