Choral Response: Hallelujah (G. F. Handel) 

Scriptures: Isaiah 65:17-25 Luke 24:1-12 

Description: On Easter morning, the women approach the tomb knowing what is expected of them. But after the tomb turns out to be empty and God’s story turns out not to be over, how should they respond? What can they trust? How can they see the news of the empty tomb as good? And what about us? Our world is full of tombs – empty and otherwise – can we, like the women, find hope? #Remember #Lent #Luke24 #TheHardestPart #everythinghappens #katebowler

Scriptures: Isaiah 55:1-9 & Luke 13:1-9

Description: There is the world as we see it… and there is the world as God sees it. What does it mean to embrace God’s kind of imagination? And how might that relate to repentance or forgiveness? Louisa digs into Jesus’s comments about contemporary tragedies and his story about a fruitless fig tree in the context of Isaiah’s invitation to eat and drink. This is part of our Lenten series: “The Hardest Part,” inspired by Kate Bowler and the Everything Happens project.  #imagination #Lent #repentance #Luke13 #Isaiah55 #TheHardestPart #everythinghappens #katebowler

Scriptures: Psalm 27, Luke 13:31-35 

Description: Suffering is an inevitable part of the landscape of our lives and our world. Jesus models for us a style of prayer that honors our pain and saves us from falling into despair. This kind of prayer, deeply interwoven in the psalms, is called lament. For our own sakes and for the world around us, the Bible invites us to renew our practice of lament.
