The First Sunday In Lent
[Notice, please, that it's the First Sunday in Lent, not of Lent.]
This week, with the beginning of a new season, we learn of God's covenant as articulated to Noah, hear of Peter's pastoral definition of same, and discover that Jesus receives the Holy Spirit through baptism, and not through "open communion". All this plus my "sinful" global positioning system.
The lections may be found here.
