Lighten Up and Let Loose the Praise

Second Sunday of Easter, Year C, April 3, 2016
The “alleluias” are back, and are they ever plentiful! They sound pretty good at the Easter festival services, but have you noticed how they tend to lose their vim and vigor as the weeks go by? Why is that, and what can we do about it?

Doubt, Belief, and Life in Jesus’ Name

Second Sunday of Easter Lectionary Reflection, April 7, 2013
What do doubt, belief, and life in the name of Christ have in common? A lot! This Sunday’s gospel reading offers rich material to consider why it matters that we continue to gather, to tell the stories of faith, and to encounter Jesus. (Photo by Christine Matthews. Thanks!)
