 The Scripture we were exploring in Bible Study on Thursday evening started bothering me last night and wouldn't let me sleep. It's liturgically part of the Palm Sunday story. But what started bothering me happens in between the Triumphal Entry and Jesus turning over the tables in the temple. Mark writes in Mark 11:11 that after the Triumphal Entry, "Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple at night by himself and "looked around at everything, (καὶ περιβλεψάμενος πάντα-(kai periblepsamenos panta)" Fashion designer and artist Alessandro Michele writes, "There is something special about the beauty in the unclear, the ambiguity, the in-between that you can't totally recognize." Yes. And the Holy Spirit is also indicating that wrapped in the mystery and not knowing, there may be a lot more going on in this little in-between temple visit than meets the eye. Join us Sunday as we linger with Jesus on that night. I look forward to being with you for "Looking Around At Everything (καὶ περιβλεψάμενος πάντα): Recognizing the Mystery and Meaning In-Between." We will be sharing Holy Communion, so don't forget to bring your communion elements to worship. I look forward to being with you. -Rev. jeanne
