Journeying through Lent with St. Peter
This Lent, we will focus on the life and faith of our patron saint using art and meditations from “Sanctified Art.” The program designers note, “In Peter we see a person who is both steadfast and unsteady, a dear friend and a betrayer, a follower and a wanderer. By following Peter’s journey we watch the story of Jesus unfold through the eyes of a normal human being trying to figure it all out.” Guided by Abigail, we will reflect on key elements of Peter’s story of discipleship through art, scripture, and meditation, ultimately coming to better understand our ministry as disciples in the world today.

“The Lost Art of Kindness: Civility as a Christian Calling”
A ChurchNext video offering with Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde
“Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde explores the idea of civility as a Christian calling by delving into the powerful theme of kindness, as exemplified in both the Hebrew Scriptures and Christian teachings. In exploring biblical stories, Bishop Budde introduces the deeper spiritual principles behind acts of kindness. Being kind, however, doesn’t mean abandoning our principles. Bishop Budde examines the importance of standing firm in our convictions while respecting the dignity of others, even during moments of strong disagreement. Bishop Budde also offers insight to help integrate kindness as a fundamental aspect of Christian living. Through self-reflection and spiritual growth, this course encourages participants to apply principles like doing justice, loving kindness, and walking humbly in all aspects of life.”
