RCL Reflection for the 24th Sunday after Pentecost Year A.

Oh, these problematic parables of Jesus! The longer one looks at them, ponders them, and teaches them, the more complex and compelling they become. Explore the parable of the three servants and talents and challenge yourself to understand a counter-cultural meaning with implications for justice in today’s world.

Encourage, Edify, and Live in the Light
Revised Common Lectionary reflection, Nov. 19, 2017
When we edify and encourage one another — through mutual prayer, strong friendships and small groups, worshiping together, serving side-by-side, and sharing our time, talent, and resources — we all become stronger. We are more likely, though the gift of a strong community, to use our talents and take greater risks with more confidence to multiply all that God has given us. We are truly better together.
