RCL Lectionary Reflection, Third Sunday in Lent, Year A, March 15, 2020 The stock market! COVID-19! Climate change! How do we lead, serve, and preach/teach to the Body of Christ when anxiety is pretty much at flood level for a lot of folks? What do this week’s lessons have to say to those of us called to lead in times like these? Plenty! (Photo: Kenny Uhh Creative Commons)
RCL Reflection, Third Sunday in Lent, Year A, March 19, 2017
Everyone has worth and matters to God. We all hunger and thirst for the same basic things that only God can provide. Our Creator is prodigally generous, meeting our needs, lifting us up from the muck of our own making, and claiming us as part of the family. Can we not extend that same generosity to our sisters and brothers in the name of Christ so that all thirst may be quenched? (Photo: Amir Farshad Ebrahimi, Creative Commons)

In the Samaritan woman at the well we dare not see someone “other” or “less than” ourselves. Rather, mirrored in her eyes is the reflection of our own brokenness and shame. We all thirst for the living water that only God can provide. (Photo: kateausburn, Creative Commons)
3rd Sunday in Lent, Year A, March 27, 2011
What do water and evangelism have in common? What does John have to teach us in his account of Jesus and the woman at the well? Not surprisingly, there is much we can take from this story and apply to our discipleship walk.
