    • Faith First: God at the Center

    Readings for Sunday, March 20, 2022 — Third Sunday of Lent

    Exodus 3:1-8A, 13-15; Psalm 103:1-2, 3-4, 6-7, 8, 11; 1 Corinthians 10:1-6, 10-12; Luke 13:1-9

    Suggested Reflection Questions:

    • Moses tends the flock of his father-in-law. The life of a shepherd is one of silent watchfulness. Amidst the desert at the base of Mount Horeb, Moses observes a bush blazing with fire, yet it’s not consumed by the flames. Moses’ curiosity compels him to investigate this phenomenon and eventually leads Moses to an encounter with God that forever changes his life and the lives, story, and tradition of an entire people. Has your sense of curiosity about the natural world ever yielded an opportunity to experience the presence of God? How can you incorporate Moses’ quiet watchfulness into your own busy life, especially if you live in a big city?
    • The psalmist describes God’s kindness as mysterious and limitless, just like the heavens. Learn something new about our universe this week. Can you see God’s infinite goodness and kindness reflected in the vastness of space? How?
    • In Luke’s Gospel, Jesus tells the parable of the fig tree. The orchard owner, frustrated that the tree has yet to bear fruit, instructs the gardener to chop it down. The gardener suggests that perhaps the tree requires some extra care, nurture, and cultivation to be fruitful. Is there a relationship with a friend, colleague, family member, or significant other you’ve been tempted to end because it doesn’t seem to be fruitful? How can you, like the gardener, give it the care it deserves to see if some cultivation can help it flourish? When do you know it is time to cut a relationship that isn’t being fruitful?

  •                              mary magdalene

    Mary Magdalene is one of the most important women mentioned in the New Testament. She was one of Jesus’ closest followers and is thought by many to have been a woman of means who may have bankrolled his ministry. The Gospels tell us Mary of Magdala was the woman from whom Jesus expelled seven demons. She stayed by Jesus at the foot of the cross, and after his death, she went to anoint his body for burial. All four Gospels agree that Mary was the first person to witness the Resurrection, so she is called the “apostle to the apostles.” She has often been confused with Mary of Bethany (sister of Martha and Lazarus) and also with the sinful woman in Luke 7 who washed Jesus’ feet with her hair. This confusion has led to the false idea that Mary Magdalene was a repentant prostitute. Her feast day is July 22.

    Questions for Reflection:

    • Mary Magdalene has been a victim of mistaken identity and has had an undeserved reputation as a woman of ill repute for centuries. In fact, she was not a fallen woman, but a leader within the community of disciples and in Jesus’ inner circle of friends. What do you imagine it was like for a woman of that time and place to be so close to Jesus?
