11th Hour Preacher Party: Flipping Tables and Finding Lost Things

Preaching Pals! Ready or not, here it comes! It’s time to make preparations for the Third Sunday in Lent. My schedule is a bit lighter as I am sharing monologues featuring people in the Bible on Sunday mornings as we hear from Peter, Martha, Lazarus, and Thomas, to name a few, but your schedule may feel anything but light. Remember you are not alone. Your Rev Gals and Pals are here to help. Are you preaching from the Narrative Lectionary? Are you studying the Revised Common Lectionary where Jesus throws the merchants out of the temple?  Share your questions, thoughts or a link to your sermon in the comments as we journey to Sunday together, but definitely take a moment to reflect on the beauty of God’s creation around you. The snow is melting here in Wisconsin, the window to my office is open and the birds are calling in the distance.  It’s lovely.
