What do we need to let go of in order to bear good fruit in our lives? On the first Sunday of Lent Christopher Mack looks to Jesus’ triumph over evil, injustice, and suffering as opening a way for us to ground pain in Divine Love . [Luke 4:1-13]
Reflection
- As we begin Lent, is there a place where you feel acutely depleted or empty?
- Where do fears, resentments, and insecurities threaten to block your ability to see God at work?
- How can you listen to the Nonviolent Forgiving Way in silence?
