Called to repent! (23 March)
Dear Friends,
Jesus certainly adopts a terse tone in this Sunday’s gospel. We are called to repent! My sermon will look at the complexity of Jesus’ context and the difficult question we all face in life: Why do bad things happen to good people? I don’t believe God punishes us for wrongdoing. Jesus calls us to new growth. Our task is to listen to his call.
Here we are at the mid-point of Lent, it is hard to explain where time goes. I do hope that you are finding some time to set aside for some prayer and thought on the themes from our gospels we have heard recently. Our Lenten studies are under way, and I am enjoying the extra time I am able to spend with some of you either online or face to face.
Love and Blessings,
Linda
