Again & Again
In Lent, we’re reminded that, again and again, suffering and brokenness find us. We doubt again, we lament again, we mess up again. Again and again, the story of Jesus on the cross repeats—every time lives are taken unjustly, every time the powerful choose corruption and violence, every time individuals forget how to love. With exacerbation we exclaim, “Again?! How long, O God?” And yet, in the midst of the motion blur chaos of our lives, God offers a sacred refrain: “I choose you, I love you, I will lead you to repair.” Again and again, God breaks the cycle and offers us a new way forward.
Again & Again
God Meets Us
Again and again, God meets us where we are, but doesn’t leave us there. We shift from sinking sand to solid ground,
navel-gazing to community, personal pietism to justice for all, and away from behaviors, both personal and systemic, that frustrate God’s vision for the world.

Again & again
We're called to listen
Again and again, we are implored to listen, especially when what we hear is unsettling. Repentance means changing
direction. Like a heavenly GPS, Spirit is highlighting a new path. May we tune our sensors heaven-ward, despite the
difficulties along the way.
Again & again
We Draw on Courage
Courage is deep within each of us; drawing on courage is both external and internal. We often find it when we need it most, when everything else has been stripped away.
Again and again, we take heart amid the drama. The script is unsettling but we have not yet reached "the end"
Again & again
The Sun Rises
Again and again, the sun rises on a new day, often with embrace or acknowledgment. The same is true of resurrection - even if aren't able to fully understand it. Things can be scary and okay at the same time.
