There are many things we face in life that are so difficult or painful or overwhelming, we wonder if our faith can persevere, or if WE can persevere.  We want to trust God, but sometimes we confront things that cause us to question, “Is God’s grace enough for me, in the face of… this?”

One challenge Christians often overlook is the need to accept that God's grace extends not only to us and people we love, but also to people we judge, or even despise.

The second part of our exploration of this parable focuses on Lazarus, and God's unique concern for the struggles and destiny of the poor of this world.

The rich man and the poor man don't know it, but their lives are inextricably bound, on both sides of the grave.

Most of the time, what is right and what is fair are the same.  But sometimes, what is right and what is fair diverge.

Take time to grieve today, to process the tragedy we have watched unfold, and to imagine together a path that leads us to peace, while honoring the trauma of war.

We sometimes treat faith community as a place we go to show how decent and put together we are, as if we were supposed to work out all of our stuff BEFORE we can enter holy spaces. But the implication of this approach is that the only people who belong in church are those who don't need God.

The merchant in Jesus’ parable ceased the project of always trading up, always angling for the next thing.  He had found something that caused him to stop fretting about all the other things he could have, all the other pearls that he could find if he kept seeking.  Somehow he found the clarity of understanding to say, this is what I want, and I don't have to keep pining for the next thing. Jesus says, “The kingdom of heaven is like that.”

In this parable, Jesus describes God’s kingdom as a present reality that is nonetheless small, at least for now.  But the growth that is in store, is not just an increase in size; it is a realization of purpose.    Make a gift to The Table: https://thetableqc.churchcenter.com/givingThank You!  Read the blog for The Table: https://www.thetableqc.com/blog
