The Beatitudes for Lent: The Indubitably Debonaire
Third Sunday in Lent, March 23, 2025 @ 9:45 AM
Readings: Psalm 25:1-10; Matthew 5:1-10
Rev. E. Nicholas Van Gombos
We’ll listen for the word Jesus offers in Be-attitude #3 – ‘Blessed are the Meek – for they shall inherit the earth.’ A curious thought for this, or any time. It certainly doesn’t seem to jibe with our ‘natural tendencies’ about what makes for success toward ‘inheriting’ anything. Maybe yet again we are invited to embrace the ironic nuance to which Jesus calls us?! Hope to see you in church to explore this together!
