Sunday, Ordinary 22/Proper 17-- Aug 30
Meditation Saturday Ordinary 22, Proper 17 shed light on the encounters with God and the ability of the individual to both recognize the ‘God-encounter’ and understand the ‘directive.’ The Old Testament lesson led Moses to be a shepherd (he wasn’t a young man, either) of Jethro’s (Moses’ father-in-law and priest) herds. It…

Saturday, Ordinary 22/Proper 17-- Aug 30
Meditation Saturday Ordinary 22, Proper 17 showed how proof made life easier to convince people. In the Old Testament lesson, Moses was looking for some kind of proof to present to his own people.

Monday, Ordinary 21/Proper 16-- Aug 25
Meditation Monday, Ordinary 21, Proper 16 reinforced the story of the Children of Israelites multiplying and becoming a great nation—a real threat to the Egyptians when the Pharaoh, who was so favorable to Joseph passed away, and they no longer had an advocate.

Sunday, Ordinary 21/Proper 16-- Aug 24
