The First Sunday of Lent: The Test
•
The Rev. Canon Alissa Newton
"How do we know who we are? How do we know what that means?
One way is through reflection on scripture, and participation in worship – liturgies like this one, the First Sunday in Lent, where we encounter ourselves again and again in text and prayer and sacrament.
Another way is to recognize our own wilderness experiences, and to face our own tests."
text: Luke 4:1-13
Preached on the First Sunday of Lent for St. Ignatius of Antioch, Manhattan
