Posting from the archives again this week! 3-years-ago Aaron and Marissa would live to have you join them for Proper 11. 
In this episode, we consider the readings for Proper 11, Year A:

Genesis 28:10-19a & Psalm 139:1-11, 22-23; Isaiah 44:6-8 & Psalm 86:11-17; Romans 8:12-25; Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43.

We discuss the Lord's promise to Jacob at Bethel, Isaiah's declaration of the Lord's unparalleled lordship alongside the absurdity of idolatry, Paul's beautiful exploration of the weight of glory, and Jesus' parable of the wheat and weeds.

This week has us sending along another re-post from the archives, while we are on sabbatical. The readings for this week are almost exactly the same as the RCL Lectionary we were using three years ago, but any timely remarks will be tied to circa 2023. Thanks for joining us, friends, and we look forward to returning to fresh episodes very soon! 
In this episode, we consider the readings for Proper 6, Year A in the Lectionary cycle:

Genesis 18:1-15, 21:1-7 & Psalm 116:1, 10-17; Exodus 19:2-8a & Psalm 100; Romans 5:1-8; Matthew 9:35-10:23.

We discuss the story of the the messengers coming to Abram and Sarah who laughed, the Lord's message to Israel at Mt. Sinai, Psalms of Thanksgiving, Paul's words on hope and the love of Jesus, and Jesus' sending out the twelve in His name.
