A moment in the spotlight
I did not miss reminding you all of your mortality, it seems we all are well aware of it right now, ashes are not necessary while we are all/or should be wearing masks. I did ask people at the Ash Wednesday service to consider these questions, 1. Is there a daily action/behavior that you might take on during Lent that would help you affirm God’s life-giving power over death? 2. Is there a daily action/ behavior that you want to let go of during Lent in order to embrace God’s promise of new life. More

Of change and being changed
We all have the potential for that kind of transformation and we can ignore it or we can embrace it, and face the consequences of giving a new voice into the world. This kind of Change can bring us out of our selfish needs and for many of us it has been on a slow simmer for a long time. We have watched the unfairness of the pandemic, in our country and in the world. We have watched the unrest caused by white supremacy, we have seen the hatred and violence of warring politics. We have watched politicians locked down in their own ways of always doing things and are frightened by the results. More

In it for the long haul
“Offer yourself to God, like Jesus did, with love and compassion in service to others, and you’ll know what it is that you have to give and will be sustained in whatever that is for the long haul.” More

Mark Lays It Out For Us
God breaking into this world, God becoming human, and instead of the worst of all of our fears, God came as a child and a very human child. A child dependent on others to care and feed, to give comfort, to love and care for god as a child. It is an amazing story of vulnerability. Giving up power to learn something, to know more about the life of humanity. This is the beginning of the story. More

Where is our sense of wonder…can it lead to radical love?
Valarie Kaur is a social justice activist, lawyer, filmmaker, innovator, mother and Sikh American and I am reading her book, A Memoir and Manifesto of Revolutionary Love, her work is about Revolutionary love how we get to living into that love. As Raymond Williams says “Kaur provides us a book that is part memoir and part how to manual on how to practice what she describes as “revolutionary love”. She defines revolutionary love as the active decisions humans make to wonder about others, our opponents, and ourselves. This act of wonder, she says, will help make the world a better place. Failing to wonder ultimately leads to violence against people who we consider the other.”
It is in wonder that we can see past our own fears, we can reach past to see who else is other there and who can be part of our journey. More
