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.

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.
Today we are asked to answer Jesus’s question, “who do you say that I am?” He is the hope of the world, the Son of God, the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.
Today, we are reminded that our identity is in Christ. We welcome Jesus into our midst and invite the Kingdom of God to lay its claim upon us so that we may be prepared to be sent out into the world.
This week we consider what it means to be children of God as Christians and think about how our earthly parents affect our lives.
This week we consider how we are part of God’s good creation and how our knowledge of God or what we think we know about God can be dangerous if we are not humble.
This week we work through what judgment is compared to consequences. We wrestle with questions about what is and is not God’s judgment as a church.
This week we learn what the Gospel is from Jesus himself. We try to imagine what it must have sounded like to hear that God’s kingdom was coming in a world that is more distant from actual kingdoms.
This week we learn about how we are called as the church to be shaped by Christ rather than what the world wants us to be shaped as.
This week we examine the baptism of Jesus in the Gospel of Mark. We learn how we are called to repent as a body, not just as individuals.
