The Fifth Sunday of Easter. Is your spiritual baggage keeping you disconnected from God? Jesus’ teaching about vines and branches helps us understand how staying connected to him helps us rid ourselves of the things that drag us down.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #peterwalsh #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
The Fourth Sunday of Easter. In the beginning, God sang all of creation into existence, but does God lament the destruction that has followed since? How can practicing a spiritual humility give us a reverence for all living things on Earth and how might it lead us to resist the forces of destruction in this world?#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan  #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope  #carolynsharp #yds
The Third Sunday of Easter. The Easter message gives people hope that good things can come out of dark times and that there may indeed be a life beyond this one. But when it comes to believing in the resurrection, the concept can feel a bit unreasonable. What if those of us gathered as the church are the most reasonable proof yet?#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan  #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope #johnkennedy #revjohnkennedy
The Second Sunday of Easter. The recent earthquake and solar eclipse are certainly events that captivate us for a period of time, but do they change anyone’s life? John’s Gospel presents a resurrection appearance that left all involved forever changed. By participating in that resurrection experience today, we may find ourselves changed as well.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #elizabethgarnsey #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
Easter Day. Jesus has appeared in numerous places over the years, from seashores to operating tables and even Bob Dylan's dressing room. In each of these situations, the people who encounter him leave rocked. So how is it that we've dumbed down something as amazing and mysterious as the resurrection?#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #peterwalsh #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
The Great Vigil of Easter. The Great Vigil, like many things, starts in darkness...but that is not where it ends. If you're feeling stuck in life's dark, tight places, you may find hope in the stories of the exodus, baptism, and the resurrection. They show us a way not out but through.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #elizabethgarnsey #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
Good Friday. It’s not just confirmation students who wrestle with the idea of why Jesus had to die. For many adults, the challenging story of the cross has been about God punishing an innocent Jesus for our sins, while others have preferred to distance themselves from this story altogether. What might we experience if we sit with the discomfort and remain open to what the cross is teaching us?#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan  #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope #johnkennedy #revjohnkennedy
Maundy Thursday. Why have we made Christ’s last meal into a regular sacrament but only recognize his act of foot washing once a year? In this act of extravagant giving and risky receiving, we remember who we are as the body of Christ.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #elizabethgarnsey #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
The Fifth Sunday in Lent. Like the saints of old, we yearn to see Jesus. In encountering both the crucified Christ and the risen Christ, we also discover things about ourselves and a new way of life.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #elizabethgarnsey #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
The Fourth Sunday in Lent. An Old Testament story about bronze serpents, snakebites, and the wilderness may not sound relatable today. On the other hand, it might be the perfect metaphor for those who feel "bitten" by life, and it might even strengthen our understanding of why Jesus came into the world.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #peterwalsh #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
The Third Sunday in Lent. Jesus might be known for his peaceful ways but he certainly had some moments of disruption. What do these dramatic actions reveal about Jesus and what do they say about his zeal for us?#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan  #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope #johnkennedy #revjohnkennedy
The Second Sunday in Lent. Some of Jesus’ advice was pretty hard to swallow! He knew that for his followers then, as for many Christians today, following him could be life-threatening. For those of us who don’t face religious persecution, how do Jesus’ words call us to show up for those who do?#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #peterwalsh #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
The First Sunday in Lent. Climate change. Gun violence. Even the simple ways we teach our children to be kind. We constantly fall down in our attempts to do what is right. We have a constant need for repentance, and the spiritual work of our lives is finding ways to continuously return to the path God has set us on.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #elizabethgarnsey #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
Ash Wednesday. After witnessing a funeral pyre in India, Fr. Peter Walsh experienced a moment of metanoia, a conversion of the heart. In the face of death, he urgently decided to choose life and get his priorities in order. Each Ash Wednesday, all of us are faced with a similar choice.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #peterwalsh #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
The Last Sunday after the Epiphany. What is the one thing everyone in the Super Bowl seems to be chasing? Glory! For those who achieve the glory, how long do they have before it fades? The story of the Transfiguration offers a glimpse at a glory that never fades away; one that all of us can share in.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan  #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope #johnkennedy #revjohnkennedy
The Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany. Take a look at the latest headlines and you’ll see the world is in a feverish state these days. Jesus and the prophet Isaiah offer some clues as to how we can lift one another up and find relief and renewed strength.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #elizabethgarnsey #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
The Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany. In 2023, St. Mark's thrived and continued to grow, but some challenges lie ahead. We can gain new insight into these things through a variety of metrics. While we can see God at work here, some things simply can't be measured.
The Third Sunday after the Epiphany. Why do so many of us fail to commit to our New Year's resolutions? When Jesus called his disciples, they made it look so easy to leave their old lives behind and follow him on a new path. What might our own lives look like if we encountered Jesus and what might he be calling us to leave behind?#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan  #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope #johnkennedy #revjohnkennedy
The Second Sunday after the Epiphany. The Bible has many stories about angels appearing when people needed them most. In John's Gospel, Jesus tells Nathaniel that he, like his ancestor Jacob, will see angels ascending and descending from heaven. So what should we expect to see today?#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #elizabethgarnsey #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope 
The First Sunday after the Epiphany. Jesus being baptized in the Jordan river. A priest laying on a massage table in India. Though 2,000 years apart, both of these events give us a glimpse at what divine love is like.#episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalian #church #jesusmovement #wayoflove #christian #anglican #allarewelcome #christianity #prayer #jesus #iglesiaepiscopal   #theology #anglicanchurch #holyspririt #faith #stmarksnewcanaaan #peterwalsh #ens #ecct #spirituality #bible #scriptures #joy #peace #grace #hope
