St. Mark's New Canaan

The Eighteenth Sunday After Pentecost. 
The Autumnal Equinox reminds us of the balance between light and dark. It reminds us of death, life, hope, and rebirth. How do we learn to stay through our darkest times so we can bear the light for others in their own dark times?

The Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost. 
What is it about gossip that's so enjoyable? Why do we join in when others start gossiping to us? The letter of James stresses how damaging our words can be. So, as we seek to walk Jesus' walk, perhaps we can begin by talking Jesus' talk.

The Fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost. 
What is the connection between our physical and spiritual nourishment? In a culture obsessed with food and wellness, how do the teachings of Jesus offer sustenance not just for our bodies, but for our souls? Watch and reflect on the transformative power of consuming the "Bread of Life" and the impact it has on our spiritual well-being.

The Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost. 
Jesus' instructions to eat his body and drink his blood certainly sound strange, but just like physical food, Jesus offers us some much-needed nourishment. How does the Eucharist redeem and heal, connect the material with the physical, and unite all creation?

The Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost. 
50 years ago, Philippe Petit performed an illegal and daring high-wire act between the two World Trade Center towers. Something about the towers drew him to them. For those seeking spiritual sustenance, this story highlights what it's like to be drawn to Jesus.

The Eleventh Sunday After Pentecost. 
Just as the crowds clamored for more of the bread Jesus fed them, we too seek things in life that will leave us feeling satisfied and full. Even though Jesus directs us to seek him as our spiritual nourishment, we shouldn’t miss the things in this world that help us achieve that.

The Tenth Sunday after Pentecost. 
How are we to understand the miracles of Jesus? With a rational approach that finds more believable explanations? With a literal approach that sees every word as fact? John’s Gospel calls the miracles signs, so maybe understanding them as something more symbolic can help us see the mystical side of what happened and give us an awe and reverence for the divine.

The Ninth Sunday After Pentecost. 
It's fun to be part of a crowd. But what happens when that crowd begins leading us in a bad direction, toward doing things we wouldn't normally do? How can we learn to listen for Jesus' voice among all the noise?
