Even though we do not deserve it, we can come to Jesus humbled, in need of compassion, entirely dependent on His generosity, on His grace and on His mercy.

Today we learn to call ourselves and one another to that hard work of searching ourselves and putting to death that part of our flesh that would keep us from God.
We receive the Bread of Life. All can receive it. Through it, there is hope for life. It is freely given for all and to all.
Jesus comes to nourish us with a food that gives us strength for the journey. His flesh is true food and his blood, true drink. We are invited to journey with Him and into Him becoming the Body of Christ.
This week we try to imagine our lives in the expectation and glorification of Jesus’ transfiguration. We try to prepare ourselves to see a world where God could come into at any moment. That any regular moment could be transfigured into a moment of God’s glory and power.
This week we look at the story of the Golden Calf. We see how idolatry is always around us and what it looks like in our lives today.
This week we dive into the ten commandments (with the sun setting earlier than usual) and how they are more nuanced and layered than we may initially think. What at first may seem as condemning law is actually loving direction.
This week we do a recap of what we have been learning so far in the book of Genesis and look at the story of Jacob’s ladder as God appears in an in-between place.
We keep it simple and look at three ways to respond to this remarkable reading, a hymn of the ancient church, today: We are to contemplate what Christ has done, become a people who witness what Christ has done, and learn to live what Christ has done.
