This is the final episode in our Lenten Series! We're talking about Psalm 22, which Jesus quotes while He is on the Cross. The words may be familiar, "Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachtani!," because they are part of the Palm Sunday and Good Friday liturgies, so we're diving into what they mean, and what they mean for us.

We're looking at Isaiah 52:13-53:12 for today's episode. It's all about the suffering servant, and what it means to sit in mystery and to wait for the insight that often comes only after the resolution of such a time of waiting.

This third episode in our Lenten series is all about two Greek words in the line from the Gospel of Mark, "Repent and believe the Good News." Metanoeite (repent) and pistuete (believe) have waaaaay wider meanings than we typically think of in the English translations of these words, and we talk all about it this week.

This year for our lenten series we are diving into scripture! Each week we will be reading and discussing a short biblical passage that speaks to our experiences of suffering and sacrifice, and inspires us to a greater receptivity to God's work in our hearts during this season of lent. This episode is all about Mary and the gift she is to each one of us as we take up our own crosses and follow the Lord.

In this episode we look at what it means to maintain and grow in relationships amidst a culture of division... and we are not talking about mamby pamby niceness that lets go of the strong convictions that we hold. True relationship is not about sacrificing what we believe to be true, but about upholding the dignity of our brothers and sisters and loving them so that we can continue to dig for the truth together.
