  2. What if the dissonance in this calendrical coincidence can be harmonized into a deeper melody?

  4. At the Transfiguration, we say farewell to alleluia and hello to the horrific reality of our lost condition.
  5. On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss Mark's account of the temptation of Christ by the devil in the wilderness.
  6. Preaching the intensities of Lent and Holy Week’s gospel pericopes means dispensing with romanticized interpretations and allowing the texts to self-present, be they ever so uncomfortable or forceful.
  7. Are We Just Rats in a Maze? In this episode, we discuss grief, mourning, death, and hope while reading C.S. Lewis’s book, A Grief Observed.
  8. Look to the cross of Christ and there we see sin has been executed to death.
  9. This week’s text invites us to walk alongside a grieving sister. The connection to your hearers will be easy, for life in this world provides no shortage of reasons to grieve.
