Lectionary Bible Readings

Job 38:1-7

Psalm  104:1-6,24,25c

Hebrews 5:1-10

Mark 10: 35-45

Christian leadership is not like human authority nor is it based upon power and lording it over others. Quite the contrary, it is genuine when expressed in service. Jesus came not to be served but to serve. What about me? How am I of service to others?

Giving thanks during COVID-19

Giving thanks and expressing gratitude is one of the oldest concepts in society.  It reminds us of how special, beautiful, and blessed our lives are even when we are faced with challenging, stressful, and overwhelming situations.

The concept of gratitude is especially important in the midst of a pandemic like COVID-19 when the world around us is unpredictable and sometimes even dangerous.
