This Sunday is the First Sunday in Lent. This year the Gospel of Luke will guide us through the season. The theme is “Everything In Between.” This theme invites us to navigate the tensions and stresses in our lives with greater faith, awareness, and a willingness to be transformed. Each week we will look at two supposed binaries, such as “faith and works,” “rest and growth,” and “grief and hope.” We usually consider contrasts like these to be opposites, but as we explore these concepts through the scriptures, instead we find nuance, complexity, and opportunity! We may discover that God is present in the very tensions that we usually avoid.
