Wandering Heart…Here’s My Heart

In many ways, our scripture passage for this Sunday brings us full circle… back to fishermen by the seashore, doing what they do best:  fishing. In this passage from John, the disciples encounter the risen Christ who prepares breakfast for them over an open fire.

Wandering Heart… Songs of Loudest Praise

On Palm Sunday, after everything the disciples had been through, after everything Peter knew (and still didn’t know) about Jesus, what must he have felt as he watched Jesus and heard the hopeful songs of the crowd?

Come and See

Rev. Lesley Brogan helps us explore what it means to “come and see” in our path of discipleship.

Living Love

Today we continue in what’s known as the “Farewell Discourse” in the Gospel of John, taking a deeper dive into what exactly it means to follow in Christ’s Way. Jesus had some very specifics “asks” of disciples then and now AND he offered the promise of divine presence that would remain with his followers always. What exactly does it means to follow in Christ’s Way?

Preparing a Place

What does it mean that Jesus prepares a place for us? How is that a present reality in addition to a future promise? And what difference does it make for how we think about creating place and space for one another?

Learning To Live without Knowing

These stories from Ezekiel and John talk about hope. During this particular time and place, what do our hearts and lives need in the way of hope and how are we called to share that hope with others?

Who Sinned?

Jesus’ healing of a man born blind raises all kinds of questions. What kind of questions are good and what kind are bad? In what ways did the blind man see/perceive while the others did not?

Will You Give Me a Drink?

The story of Jesus asking the Samaritan woman for a drink inspires us to reflect on how we can learn from his example and cross boundaries to engage others?
