With wars waging within and without, the cross settles them all with peace to body, mind and soul.
In this Sunday's Gospel, Jesus teaches us that if we are going to talk about sins, we should talk about our sins and not the sins of others. When we do that, He is willing to go before His Father on our behalf. He is our advocate and intercessor! Worship with us and learn more.

We learn from Isaiah that God's love is steadfast. In the life of Paul, we see that steadfastness in action. Despite all the ways that Paul worked against the will of God, the Lord's love for him and for us never wavers. Like Paul, we are guided to the love of Christ in this Lenten season.
Jesus laments over Jerusalem. He is lamenting not for a city, but a people who reject prophets and will kill Him shortly. He has no fear or animosity toward the rulers, but sadness for His people who do not understand who He is, and what He is here to do. Of all the wonders that Jesus accomplishes because of His divinity, this reading is a reminder of Jesus’ humanity as He shows deep concern and compassion for His people.
