Psalm 1; Ephesians 4:11-16; Matthew 13:31-34
Psalm 1; Ephesians 4:11-16; Matthew 13:31-34
"Paradise", Jan Bruegel
Jesus often spoke in parables to try and explain complex concepts to his disciples. One of his most important topics was about the coming of the kingdom of God. Today, we’ll hear about how the kingdom of God will come like the sprouting and flourishing of a mustard seed. We’ll think on how we’re called and encouraged to deepen our own roots of faith so that we too can bear fruit for the good of all of creation. We’ll think of how we’ve each been given a part in this continual growth of God’s kingdom on earth.

Deuteronomy 30:9-14; Colossians 1:1-14; Luke 10:25-37
Deuteronomy 30:9-14; Colossians 1:1-14; Luke 10:25-37
"Good Samaritan", Vincent van Gogh
Over the past weeks, we’ve thought about the ways in which we’re given to know and understand all of who God is and all that God has done for us – the ways in which we come to realize just what God’s story on this earth means. Today, we’ll begin to think of how we’re meant to share that story with all the world. Through this familiar parable, we can remember just what it means to live as God’s representatives, the hands and feet of Christ, for all our neighbors, loving each person as though they were our own selves.

Psalm 29; Romans 8:12-17; John 3:1-17
Psalm 29; Romans 8:12-17; John 3:1-17
"Ichtus", Trinity Church, Boston, Mass.
On this day, Trinity Sunday, we celebrate the goodness of God in all three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God as Trinity is a holy mystery that we struggle to fully understand (and no sermon is ever going to come close to explaining things perfectly!), but what we can know completely is that God so loves us that God gave us life, adopts us as children through the life giving work of Jesus Christ, and fills us and leads us by the Holy Spirit so that we might always grow closer in a new life through all of God’s goodness. Today we’ll think on these things and imagine what it might look like for our lives to be born anew to God through Christ in the Holy Spirit.
