Called from Death to Life

Lectionary Reflection for the Third Sunday after Pentecost, Year C, June 5, 2016
We never know how God’s going to show up and change our trajectory. Just look at how the lives of the widows were altered. The best thing we can do is be ready to give it all up and give it all away for the sake of the gospel. In dying to that which really doesn’t matter anyway, we are freed in Christ to truly live.
