At the crossroads...
today’s readings include a number of patriarchal and misogynist references. How does the Holy Spirit disrupt our interpretation of these texts in order to proclaim these as good news?

What would Jesus do?
Some people say there are two things you never talk about in polite company, politics and religion. Guess who disagrees with that advice? Jesus.
The Bible is filled with stories in which God interrupts the political order with the in-breaking of the Word. How do we share the good news of Jesus Christ with others in this time and place? One of the best ways is talking about church and inviting them to Sunday worship at 10 AM. It’s simple, straightforward, and often effective.
Feeling uncomfortable? The Holy Spirit is with you, giving you confidence and courage. Who would you invite to church?
