Troubled Journey Cycle C

The mediations in this book center in Jesus’ troubled journey to Jerusalem as told in Luke’s gospel.

John Lynch writes that in God’s undying faithfulness to us, God goes out to the highways and byways where we live. God goes inside of our hearts, beyond the fences we put up when we hold our peace. There, at the core of our hearts, God says, “Come to my banquet.”

“God has a cross for us, but a resurrection, too. God invites us to Come and be nourished at God’s banquet,” says Lynch.

The 12 sermons in this book are based on Gospel texts primarily from Luke. Sermons follow the Revised Common Episcopal, Lutheran and Roman Catholic lectionaries.
