Never alone. Jesus promises that his disciples will never be left alone. So many times, we feel as if we are living life all alone. We wonder if we are making the right decision for our family. We struggle with loneliness but do not feel like we can make it known. We feel like we're the only ones in the world experiencing the inner thoughts we are. Into our loneliness, Jesus breathes his Spirit, providing a real presence, that life is never lived alone, for life is always lived with the Spirit of Jesus.

The trope, "Life is a journey," is a well-trodden path, from Tom Cochrane singing about life as a highway to Frodo Baggins' quest to return the ring to Mordor. Life as journey or life as pilgrimage is also common in religious traditions. When Jesus declares that he is "the way, the truth, and the life," what is he talking about? Is Jesus the path itself? Does Jesus provide the life at the end of the way? Is Jesus a fellow pilgrim and/or the pioneer of our faith? Fresh off the CROP Walk, let's keep our walking shoes on, as we walk in the dust of our Lord.

"The Lord is my shepherd..." is one of the best-known phrases in all of Scripture. While straightforward on the surface, the phrase is developed in creative ways in the person of Jesus Christ. Jesus is the Good Shepherd and Jesus is the lamb who takes away the sins of the world. Jesus is the Good Shepherd and Jesus is the gate for the sheep. How are we to make sense of it all? Through this multi-faceted prism, we discover more of Jesus' glory revealed to us, while reminding us, that with Jesus, there's almost always more than meets the eye.

This week, we continue our Easter journey on the road to Emmaus. In one of the best known stories from Luke's gospel, two disappointed and disillusioned followers of Jesus get a masterclass from a stranger on the road whom they later discover is the resurrected Jesus. We all need a masterclass in hope right now with everything swirling in the world. Let's walk with Jesus on the road to hope.

"Indeed, Jesus is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see him." The angel's words to Mary and Mary at the tomb propel them into God's future in God's new creation. They carry us forward even today, animating us with hope for God goes before us. This week, Rev. Crawford will begin a sermon series entitled, "Resurrection Sightings," exploring the stories of the early disciples catching a glimpse of the resurrected Jesus who was no longer dead, but now alive, and making all things new!

Palm Sunday begins Holy Week, the commemoration of Jesus' last days leading up to his crucifixion. What begins as a joyful processional on Palm Sunday ends on Friday with a belligerent and defiant crowd shouting, "Crucify him!" Through these final days, the heart of God and the mission of Jesus come into full clarity—for God so loved the world that he sent his only Son,  so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but have eternal life. Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. (John 3:16-17)

The journey of Lent takes into the heart of human existence. As we look inward, we discover sin and shame, pain and suffering. What do we do with it all? How does the gospel of Jesus heal us and deliver us? This week, we turn to a story in John's gospel in which Jesus heals a blind man to glean wisdom and insight into God's miraculous ways into making all things new.

Water cleanses, purifies, refreshes, and sustains. Jesus Christ is living water. As we continue our Lenten journey through the wilderness, we notice our throats have become parched. This week, we stop at the well and overhear a conversation between Jesus and a Samaritan woman in which Jesus reveals a water which will quench our deepest thirsts. Come, all who are thirsty, and drink the waters of life.
