This is our annual Remembering our Baptism Sunday. Usually on this Sunday the message is a reflection of baptism wherein God assures of God’s love, but this week we have experienced the shock of the assault on the Capitol building, and it is fresh in our minds. In Mark, the very next verse after the account of Jesus’s baptism says the spirit “drove” Jesus into the wilderness to temptation. It, too, is a shock, but Jesus responds in each case of temptation. Given our own baptism, our response to the world needs to be like his – stepping out into this world with the waters of baptism shaping our relationship and response to others and to the world.
