Grace to you and peace, from God our Creator and the Lord Jesus Christ! Organizing our secular lives by a sacred calendar can sometimes feel discordant. At the beginning of what we call our nation’s “holiday season,” with Thanksgiving this coming Thursday, our lectionary readings ask us to remember other matters of importance. Yes, we lift up our gratitude together, for many things. In our Christian calendar, though, this Sunday also invites us to consider our citizenship of a sort. This Sunday is called, variously, Christ the King Sunday or, more simply, The Reign of Christ. During our Bible study on Thursday morning, I found myself temporarily stuck as I searched for the word subject to describe an individual who is governed by a sovereign ruler. This weekend, let’s consider what it means to be subjects in a reign of Jesus’ love. How might we contribute to the furthering of God’s reign on earth by conceiving of ourselves that way? Come, give thanks, remember whose we are and how we love–widely and well.
Blessings and peace, Lisa
