First Sunday of Lent
Matthew 5:1-16

“…the crowds are hanging on Jesus’ every word… it’s abundantly clear that he’s here to start something bigger, deeper and more subversive: a global uprising that can spread to and through every religion and culture. This uprising begins not with a new strategy but with a new identity. So he spurs his hearers into reflection about who they are, who they want to be, what kind of people they will become, what they want to make of their lives.” Brian Mclaren, We Make the Road by Walking, Ch 27
