MARY MAGDALENE: a MISUNDERSTOOD BIOGRAPHY – ‘Six Men & Six Women’ Series

MARY MAGDALENE: A MISUNDERSTOOD BIOGRAPHY – ‘Six Men & Six Women’ Series You know if you are feeling tired this morning, you should really appreciate the crew who were here at 8:00 this morning. If I have ever been teaching and felt like I needed to inject an audience with something, I just witnessed it. I mean they were tired, but they were troopers for coming out and being a part of the early service. I know that you guys are excited today because it is one of those days where we will just break our New Year commitments as we begin to go off the deep end. I mean we will be eating really well today, since it is Easter, and now we are hosed. It just goes awry from here on. So I hope you have a good Easter Sunday with good fellowship. And I hope that this morning you will sense something from God’s word that you can take away from the message that will be an encouragement to you. Let me start off with a story. Several years ago, I was serving as an associate pastor in Conway, Arkansas at Celebration Church. It was a new church, and I was there on staff. I came in one Sunday morning, and I saw my bride getting a cup of coffee. So I went up behind her and began to give her a massage on her shoulders. But then she turned around, and lo and behold, it wasn’t my wife! I was horrified in that moment. What made it even worse was she was a first time guest to our church and I never saw that lady again.
The Supper at Emmaus Caravaggio Supper at Emmaus1 Isaiah 35

Trinity College Cambridge 12 May 2013 Picturing Easter: The Supper at Emmaus Caravaggio Supper at Emmaus1 Isaiah 35: 1–10 Luke 24: 13–35 Francis Watson I “Abide with us, for it is towards evening and the day is far spent”. A chance meeting with a stranger on the road leads to an offer of overnight accommodation. An evening meal is prepared, and at the meal a moment of sudden illumination occurs. In Caravaggio’s painting, dating from 1601, the scene at the supper table is lit by the light of the setting sun, which presumably comes from a small window somewhere beyond the top left corner of the painting. But the light is also the light of revelation which identifies the risen Christ, in a moment of astonished recognition. So brilliant is this light that everyday objects on the tablecloth are accompanied by patches of dark shadow. Behind the risen Christ’s illuminated head, the innkeeper’s shadow forms a kind of negative halo. This dramatic contrast of light and darkness is matched by the violent gestures of the figures seated to left and right. One figure lunges forward, staring intently, gripping the arms of his chair. The other throws his arms out wide, fingers splayed. The gestures are different, but they both express the same thing: absolute bewilderment in the presence of the incomprehensible and impossible. As they recognize their table companion as the risen Christ, the two disciples pass from darkness into light. There are no shades of grey here; this is no ordinary evening light. On Easter evening the light of the setting sun becomes the light of revelation.

Bible Characters Class

Bible Characters Class Lesson 1 - Apollos Text: Acts 18:24-28 I) Origin: Apollos is a Jew, born in Alexandria, Egypt…in northern Africa. II) Some personal traits: A) Apollos is described as eloquent. The primary meaning of this is “learned” or very educated; possessing a storehouse of words and a powerful mind. B) He was mighty in the Scriptures. This would seem to imply that Apollos was skilled at using the Old Testament to make arguments religiously. He was capable of convincing people that Jesus is the Christ (see verse 28). C) Apollos was fervent in spirit (v.25). He is said to have been boldly preaching and mightily or vigorously refuting jews (vs. 26 & 28). III) Apollos’ Error For the most part, he knew accurately the way of truth as revealed in the gospel of Jesus; except he was wrong concerning the baptism of John the baptist still being valid. — Two everyday Christians (not an apostle or evangelist) but tentmakers, Aquila & Priscilla, took him aside privately when they learned of his error and instructed him the way of Christ more perfectly. Was it much ado about nothing? Were Aquila and Priscilla a couple legalists? Majoring in minors? If you were Aquila and Priscilla, common tentmakers, upon hearing a highly educated preacher being off track on just one item, would you have approached him to correct him? If you were Apollos, and taken aside and corrected by some “lesser” folks, how would you have taken it? IV) Apollos goes to Achaia (Corinth) Acts 18:27 - 19:1a Paul has planted the church in Corinth and now Apollos goes there and waters it.

Saint Luke the Evangelist

Week Six: Saint Luke the Evangelist When we read through the New Testament, we may not realize that almost one-fourth of the text is the writing of Saint Luke. He is one of the four evangelists, or Gospel writers. He is also one of the seventy apostles who were sent out, in pairs, by Jesus to preach and teach. Saint Luke is not one of the original twelve apostles who accompanied the Lord in His ministry. Saint Luke was born in Antioch and many scholars believe he was a Gentile, or possibly a Hellenistic Jew (a member of the group of Jews that combined Jewish traditional religion with Greek cultural elements.) In any case, he wrote and spoke in Greek and was clearly well-educated. Having been trained as a physician, he was a friend and companion of Saint Paul and went along on some of Paul's missionary travels. We know this because some passages in the Book of Acts, the second volume of Luke's writing, are put in the first person plural; Luke writes of things that "we" did or places that "we" went to, meaning that he took part in those events. Saint Luke's writings are rich and varied. Many of the well-known parables appear only in his Gospel. One story that only Luke offers is the encounter of Jesus with the ten lepers. He gives us the complete account of the Annunciation and of Jesus' birth and early years with Mary and Joseph. Later in the book, Luke describes Jesus standing before Herod Antipas and the friendship that develops between Herod and Pontius Pilate (23:6-12), an episode that doesn't appear in the other three Gospels.
St. Luke the Evangelist Catholic Community a Message from the Pastor April 2, 2020

St. Luke the Evangelist Catholic Community A Message from the Pastor April 2, 2020 Dear Parishioners, Casting stones. We have all done that. Sometimes in a playful manner skipping them upon a body of water. Other times through an underhanded piece of gossipy judgement or a direct frontal attack lacking any semblance of self-integrity. Jesus found himself the probable victim of stone throwing quite often or coming to the aid of one who was about to be stoned. What lessons can we take from this moment in today’s gospel, including Jesus moving through the midst of the angry crowd without being touched? This is an important lesson for us. Jesus always had his critics and relatively a small number of disciples at least until after his resurrection. He had plenty of “listeners” who stood by on the sidelines; but very few that jumped into the mix. And, then he had those who would rather see him dead than show up at the synagogue for the next service. So, why did they want him dead? Jesus was a threat to their complacency, their power structures, religious leadership and stubbornness of heart, mind and soul. He wanted them to see the light, know the Truth and love their God with all their heart. His words – the Word – threatened them and their little sandbox. Jesus would just walk through that personal mess untouched because it wasn’t about Him, it was about them. Well, what does one do in this situation? They plot to kill. You can kill physically, emotionally, spiritually, relationally, etc.
