Sundays with Bishop Ken

Mary Magdala finds the stone removed from Jesus' tomb. What a joyous day it is! 

Palm Sunday is a good day to pray using "active contemplation." With this method, we place ourselves in the scene and experience the scripture with those in the narrative. 

One of the easiest forms of prayer is contemplation. Using this method, we do not try to accomplish anything other than to let yourself be captivated by God. 

Meditation as a form of prayer enables us to ponder the truths of our faith to better understand their meaning. Bishop Ken explains. 

Today Bishop Ken explores Lectio Divina, an age-old way of letting sacred scripture speak to you. 

As we continue to draw from the Little Black Book for Lent, today we look at liturgical prayer--attending mass--and the ways it blesses our prayer life.

What is the hardest thing to give up for Lent? We share a few thoughts before diving into our first Lenten Sunday reflection, which will focus on prayer each week. 

We all want to be good. But how do we do that? How do we get goodness inside of us? What do we do? Today we reflect with Bishop Ken on how to listen the Lord and to get goodness in our hearts.

Forgive, love, give. These are core tenants of Christianity, but while the words seem simple, the act of these can be some of the most challenging and counter-cultural things we will ever do. Join us, and spend some quiet time with Bishop Ken and the Lord. 

Blessed. It's a word we hear often. We see it printed on towels, and painted onto walls, but what does it mean to be blessed? Spend some quiet time with the Lord and reflect.
