Fourth Sunday after Pentecost, Year C, June 12, 2016
The good news this week is that God doesn’t do division. It’s just not in the Creator’s wheelhouse. Jesus, the Word made flesh, is all about addition and erasing the lines of division between “us” and “them.” These are words we sorely need to hear and live. (Photo: Chad Kainz, Creative Commons))

Third Sunday after Pentecost
This week’s lessons flow with a strong undercurrent that considers the relationship between power and injustice. Fortunately for us, Jesus models a different use of power.
