- GSMC Bible Study Podcast Episode 44: Reformation Sunday (10-29-17)October 31, 2017 marks the 500th anniversary of the Reformation when Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the church door in Wittenberg. Sarah talks first about this historic event and what led Luther to write those theses. She then looks at the texts assigned for this Sunday, known as Reformation Sunday: Jeremiah 31:31-34, Psalm 46, Romans 3:19-28, and John 8:31-36. All of these texts speak in some way of the promises and presence of God and how we can depend upon both.

She looks at how the gospel reading talks about community and how we live in community when we disagree with others or are hurt by the actions of others. Jesus gives advice for this and reminds us that where 2 or 3 are gathered in his name he is present among them.

The Gospel text is actually not the one assigned for that Sunday, but is Jesus' Sermon on the Mount where he gives many descriptions of those who are blessed and why. What do you think of when you hear the word blessed? How have you been blessed in your life? Do Jesus's descriptions of the blessed resonate or put you off?

Each of these texts, in various ways, talks about God's love for us, and the lengths to which God has gone, and continues to go, to be in relationship with us. God is with us no matter where life and the world takes us, good, bad, and everything in between.

She speaks some about the texts themselves but focuses more on the events that have happened over the past few days in Charlottesville, VA. Where is God in all of this? What is our response as faithful Christians when we see hate in the world? Ast trite as it may sound, what would Jesus do?

The gospel tells the story of Jesus feeding a crowd of more than 5,000 people with 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish. This is extraordinary enough, but the example of Jesus reminds us of something else as well about God's love and the kingdom of heaven.

In Romans 6:1b:-11 Paul talks about the abundance of grace we have been given through Christ. We are given the promises of not only Christ's resurrection but also his death because when we are baptized into a death like his we die to sin. In Matthew 10:24-39 Jesus has some difficult words for his followers, including us.
