Nehemiah 8:1-11; Psalm 19; Luke 4:14-21 - Sometimes it's difficult to recognize good news as such. I get so swamped in bad news, that I'm cautious when something actually sounds good. Did I read that correctly? Or, I wait for something bad to happen, too scared to believe that good is possible in this world. In the lectionary readings this week, people insist that the Good News is really real, and it is really happening.
