On this Second Sunday in Lent, The Rev. Dr. James E. Taylor, Rector of St. George Episcopal Church, says that as we look at our scripture lessons for today, they have a distinctive theme. Paul is talking to the church at Philippi about a similar thing: he cautions them not to be seduced by promises of an easier way to live when following the Word of God. The Word of God is an invitation to have a personal encounter with the living Christ and to share the reality of His triumph.
