   Summary:  The pomegranate, as a symbol, reminds us that the abundant life Jesus came to give is eternal. That is, it is both here and now and forever. Like a cracked-open pomegranate, Jesus was broken and poured out so that all who believe and are baptized will be saved. This is our eternal witness for these uncertain times.

   Summary:  What brings us through this current polarization will be our willingness to moderate our extremes, our willingness to bear the weight of the task before us, keeping our focus on what we have in common in the Word and Sacraments, and the love of God that abides in us, expressed in our love for one another.
