RCL Reflection for the Fifth Sunday in Lent, Year A, March 29, 2020
We have our wonderfully rich text this Lenten season, Year A, but church continues to look quite different this year thanks to COVID-19. Check out our ideas for digital connections, preaching, teaching, stewardship, and time with children and youth. Thank you for your faithful ministry! (Photo: panache2620, Creative Commons)
Hope for Dry Bones & Stinky Sinners
Revised Common Lectionary Reflection for the Fifth Sunday in Lent, Year A, April 2, 2017
If God can animate dry bones, if Jesus can bring about the restoration of rotting flesh, imagine what the Spirit can do for a tired congregation, for a group of weary and battered disciples, and for the communities in which our congregations are rooted! Where there is God, there is indeed hope. (Photo: Tim, Creative Commons. Thanks!)
Mindset
Lectionary Reflection for the Fifth Sunday in Lent, April 6, 2014
Whether we choose to spiral toward death in all its manifestations or set our minds and hearts on Jesus’ desire to give us life abundant and peace everlasting makes all the difference. Paul’s words make a strong case for setting one’s mind on Spirit-life. (Photo: , Creative Commons)
