RCL Reflection, 2nd Sunday after the Epiphany, Year B, Jan. 14, 2024.
Will visitors to your congregation find Jesus reflected in the lives and witness of his people? Will they feel the Spirit, hear the Word taught and proclaimed in fresh and real ways? Are you ready to say “Come and see” Jesus? The Rev. Sharron Blezard explores. (Photo: University of Oregon, Creative Commons)

Jesus calls: “Follow me.” He meets us where we are, but this is not where the Christ expects us to stay. Folks, faithful discipleship is hard work. We have to keep Jesus front and center every day of the week and every hour of the day. We have to go wherever Jesus leads, 24/7. (Photo: TeeCee, Creative Commons)
Come and See Jesus — for Real!
RCL Reflection, 2nd Sunday after the Epiphany, Year B, Jan. 14, 2018
What will people see when invited to your your congregation? Will they find Jesus reflected in the lives and witness of his people, or will they see only threadbare and outdated furnishings and somber folk? Will they feel the Spirit, hear the Word taught and proclaimed in fresh and real ways, and encounter Christ? Are you ready to say “Come and see?” (Photo: Wendi Kelly, Creative Commons)

“Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” asks Nathanael. Many folks today ask the same thing about the church. You are invited to open your eyes, to come and see. (Photo by Hans van de Bruggen used under Creative Commons License. Thanks!)
