  • Cowardice - Thad's Episcopal Church
    Scripture: Mark 14:10-21
    Homework: Everyday this week, pray this simple prayer: "God, grant me the courage." It could be the courage to act, to sit silently, to wait, to accompany others who are suffering, to fail, to rest, etc. You know how and where you need courage. You know your bloody, dusty heart. Practice that simple prayer once a day this week.
    Happy Labor Day! Have a great week!

  • The Courage To Be - Thad's Episcopal Church
    Scripture: Mark 14: 1-9
    Homework: Like the woman with perfume, take a risk. Pop the question, quit that job, get an interview, climb the mountain, tell your partner about it, let it go and forgive, write the book, be yourself, buy the ticket, dive in the deep end-- whatever you have to do, go for it. Find the courage to be.

  • Wars and Rumors of Wars - Thad's Episcopal Church
    Scripture: Mark 13:1-37
    Homework: We all have times when the world seems to be crashing in on us. Whether that is now or sometime down the road, you have some skills that can help you through those end times. Practice loosening your controlling grip and accepting that the divine grace that has been through the lowest lows is with you. God knows that suffering is real, and God has already intervened.
    Live into that reality this week!

  • All In - Thad's Episcopal Church
    Scripture: Mark 12: 41-44
    Homework: Practice giving in your weakness. It could be that you share your vulnerability with a trusted friend. Maybe your proverbial two cents like the widow in the passage in order to support something in which you believe. You know your own areas of weakness. Find a way to step into that weakness and give to others in a way that safely stretches you out of your comfort zone in such a way that it brings new life to you and others.
