  In his ancient letter to the Romans, Paul reminds us that we have all received mercy from God. Just think about all the ways we mess up and fall short and drop the ball… all the times when we’re snappy with one another because we’re tired and overwhelmed? How might we find encouragement for our modern souls in these ancient words? How can we become more merciful people? And how can we become a more merciful people?

  Jesus approaches the disciples caught in a storm at sea. At first they think he’s a ghost and they are afraid, but then Peter puts him (and his faith) to the test and steps out of the boat himself. This story is ripe with applications for our own lives as we have to consider the storms that form in our own lives, the ways God may find us within them, and whether we are willing to step out of a storm-battered boat.

  Word of the Week is a series for the month of August offering just one word to carry us through the week. In a month like August, when summer rhythms transition back to school, church, work, and all the other things that keep us busy most of the year, it can feel overwhelming to try to re-organize our lives around faith and spiritual practice. So, we’re going to make it really simple and offer just one word each week for inspiration. Who knows, maybe one word can change everything?!

  A woman gives a very small offering that ends up putting the more pious donors to shame… or should we say… her small gift exposes the limits of their generosity and calls us all to consider our own.
