Third Sunday of Lent
Luke 13:31-35
“The Fox and the Hen”
Rev. Benjamin J. Wines
We look forward to joining you in Worship this Sunday, starting at 11:00AM in the Sanctuary. Rev. Benjamin Wines will bring the message, “The Fox and the Hen”. We will be reading from Luke 13:31-35, and our Call to Worship comes from Psalm 27.
Call to Worship, Psalm 27:1, 4-9
Leader: The Lord is my light and my salvation;
People: Whom shall I fear?
Leader: The Lord is the stronghold of my life;
People: Of whom shall I be afraid?
Leader: One thing I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after:
People: To live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,
Leader: To behold the beauty of the Lord,
People: And to inquire in his temple.
Leader: For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble;
People: He will conceal me under the cover of his tent.
Leader: Now my head is lifted up above my enemies all around me,
People: And I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy;
Leader: I will sing and make melody to the Lord.
People: Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud, be gracious to me and answer me!
Leader: “Come,” my heart says, “seek his face!”
People: Your face, Lord, do I seek. Do not hide your face from me.
Questions for Further Reflection:
In this passage, Jesus is defiant for the sake of others.
What does that say about who God is?
How can a defiant Christ help our faith grow?
