RCL Reflection, August 4, 2019
How easy it is for our lives to be shaped by possessions and social media rancor, by media pundits and spin doctors, than by the life and ministry model of Jesus and the loving grace-filled power of the risen Christ! We Christians are called to walk a different path, to keep our minds and eyes set on things above, remembering that our unity is found in God. (Photo: Pete, Creative Commons)
Faithful & Fruitful Folk
Lectionary Reflection for the Eighth Sunday after Pentecost, Year C, July 10
It is in this God-given, God-near faithfulness that we learn to be fruitful and are equipped to tend the vineyards and orchards of God’s good creation. By chewing on the Divine word and letting it shape our hearts for justice, mercy, and love, we do the works God calls us to, and we become neighbors. (Photo: d-olwen-dee, Creative Commons)
