Scriptures for the First Sunday of Advent, Year A

Picture
Isaiah 2:1-5  www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah%202%3A1-5&version=NRSVUE

Psalm 122  www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%20122&version=NRSVUE

Romans 13:11-14  www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans%2013%3A11-14&version=NRSVUE

Matthew 24:36-44  www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2024%3A36-44&version=NRSVUE

When I started A Place of Grace in 2016, we were headed into the new lectionary cycle (RCL). I made a commitment to -- as much as possible -- follow the Old Testament readings through the cycle. The next cycle, I followed the gospels. This past cycle has been focused on the Psalms. And now we enter the fourth cycle, where I will focus on the epistles. There will be occasional variations on the norm, but the bulk of the liturgy -- and my preaching -- will be on the epistles for the next three years. I am excited about this new challenge as I have learned much from each cycle thus far. I welcome your thoughts on the focus passages each week, and look forward to ongoing conversation around the scriptures!

The focus passage for A Place of Grace this week is Romans 13:11-14. All liturgy will be based on this passage. What in Romans 13:11-14 inspires or encourages you? Share your thoughts here:  www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=1275002744668976&set=a.549399683895956 .

The appeal of lab grown diamond engagement rings in New Zealand extends beyond cost and ethics; they also offer unmatched clarity and perfection. Lab grown diamonds are free from inclusions commonly found in mined diamonds, resulting in sparkling, flawless stones.

The tool also supports inclusive learning environments, as larger fonts and bright colors help learners with visual challenges. Overall, it enhances classroom interaction by making numerical tasks more dynamic and enjoyable.

Специалисты по HR формируют списки сотрудников и отмечают их даты рождения, чтобы заранее готовить поздравления или маленькие подарки. Это помогает укреплять отношения внутри коллектива и повышает уровень вовлеченности сотрудников.

    Julie served as a Commissioned Ruling Elder in a Presbyterian Church (USA) congregation for thirteen years. She now absolutely delights in filling the pulpit for colleagues upon request, and looks forward to opportunities to do so. Her reformed perspective is sprinkled with humor and presented with authenticity, and she is open to creatively deconstructing worship as a means to helping congregants explore worship in transformational ways.

    Julie and her husband, Ray, are parents of three adult children, and grandparents of four energetic and imaginative little people. She is an introverted-with-enough-extrovert-balance-to-keep-her-social, perfectionistic-with-hopper-tendencies, time and goal-oriented, kaleidoscopic, and insatiably curious child of God.
