    Palm Sunday in John

    Listen now for this special devotional-style episode! As we sing, pray and reflect on the readings of Holy Week in the gospel of John. After reading from the gospel of John for most of Lent, we return to the gospel of John for our Holy Week daily reflections. In this episode, we explore the distinct elements of John's narration of Jesus' final entry into Jerusalem and reflect on the ways that this invites us to consider how we will respond to the events of the coming week.  Scripture quotations from the COMMON ENGLISH BIBLE. © Copyright 2011 COMMON ENGLISH BIBLE.

    Welcome to Lent and the Temptation of Jesus

    Lent, a season of preparation for baptism, is an opportunity to explore different facets of faith as we engage in a discipline that resists anything that would lead us away from God's love. This podcast will delve into the gospel reading for each Sunday in Lent, focusing on how each story helps us understand and grow in faith. This episode begins the discussion with the Temptation of Jesus in Matthew 4, examining its context and significance in understanding Jesus’ identity as God’s Son. The temptations show us Jesus’ commitment to his divine calling of servanthood and humility, challenging our understanding of Jesus' identity as God's Son, setting the stage for the ongoing struggle between the kingdom of God and worldly kingdoms throughout the Gospel of Matthew and in our own lives.
