This weekend most of our churches will be celebrating the festival of All Saints' Day in 2021.  But, if your church isn't, or if you're tuning in in future years, this weekend is Proper 27.  The readings are from 1 Kings 17:8-16, Hebrews 9:24-28, and Mark 12:38-44.

The readings for All Saints' Day do not change from one year to the next, so if you're looking for those, check out that episode from last year: https://anchor.fm/rev-steve-andrews-jr0/episodes/Year-A---All-Saints-Day-eln945

This weekend is Reformation Sunday.  Across the three-year lectionary, this festival is celebrated each year, and the readings do not differ from one year to the next.  There is, however, an option for the pastor of the local congregation to choose between one of two gospel texts.  I covered the Matthew 11:12-19 reading last year, so here's the study on John 8:31-36.  I've also added it back into the old episode.  So you can listen to the whole thing here:  https://anchor.fm/rev-steve-andrews-jr0/episodes/Year-A---Reformation-Sunday-ele6mo

This weekend of 2021 will be Reformation Sunday in our churches.  Those readings are the same each year, and so you can tune in to that episode here: https://anchor.fm/rev-steve-andrews-jr0/episodes/Year-A---Reformation-Sunday-ele6mo.

But for those who aren't celebrating the Reformation, and are sticking with the three year lectionary, this Sunday is Proper 26, and you would read from Deuteronomy 6:1-9, Hebrews 9:11-14 (15-22), and Mark 12:28-37.  So, I've put together some notes for you on those readings, also.  The Lord be with you!
