When it feels like the world has wandered far away from what you recognize, remember. Jesus tells a story of a universe that is not ordered for retribution, but for love. When you feel lost, don’t let go of that wild mercy.

Ash Wednesday in a Different Sort of Lent
I can’t cancel Lent. I can’t tell you we’re going to opt out. A rector simply doesn’t have that much authority. What I can say, is that I think this year it may be helpful to approach Lent differently.
We Wish to See Jesus
Can we quiet the busyness, the chaotic din of our days name the desire for ourselves? Do we have the boldness to ask in our prayers, in our work for justice, and every time we come to this altar: “we wish to see Jesus?”
Belonging
When Jesus Rebukes Peter, something important doesn’t happen. Peter doesn’t walk away. In a world where we don’t disagree well, this has much to teach us about our faith in God and our persistence with community.
