A Place of Refuge | Visual Resources for the Lectionary on July 9, 2023

This post offers visual resources for the Revised Common Lectionary for July 9, 2023. The RCL take us to the story of Isaac and Rebekah in Genesis 24 and meditates on love and marriage as a place of refuge in the Psalms. The prophets and the Gospel reading depict the Messiah as the one who has conquered the enemy through peace, not violence and offers a place of refuge for all who are weary.  The NL continues a three-part series on 2 Peter.

Set Free | Visual Resources for the Lectionary on July 2, 2023

This post offers visual resources for the Revised Common Lectionary for July 2, 2023. The RCL take us to the story of Abraham when God tells him to sacrifice his son Isaac in Genesis 22, Paul’s declaration that we are set free from sin in Romans 6, and the final section Jesus’ sending of the twelve on a mission in Matthew 10. It is also Independence Day weekend in the USA, so it is appropriate to explore a theme of being set free. The NL continues a three-part series on 2 Peter.
