A Resting Place For Our God
April 13, 2022 | By Katie Painter TD’23
Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto
Sicut erat in principio
Et nunc, et semper
Et in sæcula saeculorum
God’s Protection
April 13, 2022 | By Owen Sughrue H’23
Protection is a powerful thing. The harbor in my hometown of Marion, MA is incredibly well protected from Buzzards Bay and the larger Atlantic Ocean. Though we get our fair share of hurricanes, most days are calm thanks to the protection of the peninsulas on both sides of our outer harbor.
Loving the Dying Christ
April 8, 2022 | By TJ Dulac H ‘23
How often have I found myself in the place of the disciples in today’s Gospel reading, where they do not understand Jesus when He foretells His death for the third time: “He will be handed over to the Gentiles; and he will be mocked and insulted and spat upon. After they have flogged him, they will kill him, and on the third day he will rise again” (Luke 18:34). How often have I lost sight of the final parts of our Lenten journey, when Jesus is stripped, scourged, mocked, crucified, and killed.
A Funeral Song
April 5, 2022 | By Nathan Moran BF ‘24
Why do we mourn? Has God not conquered death? Why do we fast? Has God not filled the hungry with good things? Why, when Christ has overcome the grave, when the morning stars sing together and all the sons and daughters of God shout for joy, do we sing a funeral dirge?
Witnessing Joy
April 5, 2022 | By Iman Dancy MC ‘23
In Isaiah 43, Yahweh instructs the people of Israel to serve as “witnesses” to the world that He alone is God. A few millennia later, the Jesus followers of today have inherited that same responsibility. I’ve walked with Jesus for several years, but it wasn’t until last spring that I began to actively explore what being a “witness” to God’s goodness and holiness could look like in my life.
Imagining New Things
April 3, 2022 | By Sarah Henkel
Do not remember the former things, or consider the things of old. I am about to do a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert (Isaiah 43:18-19).
