Learning to Live Inside Out

Second Sunday in Lent, Year A

This is the week that the “moving out” part of our theme is most obvious. Whether we are talking about the call to go to a new place, like Abram in Genesis 12, or to move to a new understanding, like Nicodemus in John 3, movement is required. Movement means change, which is always difficult and scary. So this is a week about faith and about trust and the willingness to commit to the discipleship path.

The season of Lent is a time to journey inward and to focus on self-examination. Often, this is done through the practice of the disciplines of Lent – prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. However, this series helps us move in two directions – looking inward and moving outward. We are learning to live inside out.
