Christians can be anxious to speak, to share the wisdom we’ve found in our faith. And that’s good; but James reminds us that listening comes first.

The Gospel of John puts the incarnation, and the inherent physicality of Christianity, in front of us in the starkest possible terms. And maybe that’s not such a bad thing right now.

In this exceptional time when we’re not celebrating communion much, we’re invited to pay attention to the many ways God feeds us, to the moments of grace all around.

There are storms along the way as we grow into the people Jesus calls us to be. The good news is that he's with us in the boat.

It’s not anxious work, but it matters that the sower does it; it matters that she scatters the seeds, because she’s part of the ecosystem bringing about new life and growth.

Jesus stands with the crowds--with the sinners and the sick and the hurting and the left behind. And in the end, the story asks us the same question: where will we stand? Where will you stand?
