Lectionary Reflection for the 23rd Sunday after Pentecost, Proper 27, Year A, November 8, 2020Jesus reminds us in this week’s parable that our job is to stay awake, to pay attention, because we never know what might happen next. Who would have predicted that 2020 would be like it has been? And yet Jesus has shown up in the midst of this year and will always show up.
