Readings for the 5th Sunday in Lent - Isaiah 43:16-21;  John 8:1-11

You know how some people have a face for radio?  You get to listen to a voice made for silence for a lengthy bit of time today - but, thanks be to God, the readings are worth it.  It can often be easy for us to fall into the trap of seeing God merely as someone who has acted in the past.  In doing so, we miss the beauty and the opportunity of God's action right here, right now in our midst.  God is not an event of the past, but a dynamic presence in the Present.  And he invites us to set aside those past notions and move into a new space - if only we have the courage to imagine and perceive it.  

Special thanks as always to Shamus, Bridget and Mandy, without whom this podcast would even be a thing.  And mostly, thanks to you for listening, for rating, for recommending this podcast.  I am continually humbled at the places it has gone and that is all because of you.  And yes, thank you for your patience during these past months when the drop schedule has been uneven.  I'm hoping that we are beyond that now.  Fingers crossed.  Have a question or a comment?  I can be reached at [email protected]
