The Gift of Imperfection
Readings for the 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time - 2 Corinthians 12:7-10, Mark 6:1-6
So often it seems we struggle against those parts of us of which we are ashamed. We pretend. We hide behind masks. And in doing so, we refuse to open ourselves to the gift of grace that God and those around us are waiting to share with us. Life is not meant to be lived in perfection. We are not created that way. But to the extent that we attempt to live in that space, we choose to live a life in illusion. God invites us elsewhere - a place of truth where in accepting our vulnerabilities and imperfections, we find grace and true love. In our weakness, we are strong.
Special thanks to Bridget Zenk not only for being on this episode with me (along w/ her partner Malachi Brown), but also for creating and performing our intro and outtake music. And thank you to all of you for continuing to break open God's Word alongside of me. Have a question or comment? I can be reached at [email protected].
