A verse by verse commentary on Luke chapter 4 dealing with the temptation of Jesus in the desert by the devil, and then Jesus being rejected in Nazareth. Jesus goes on to drive out an evil spirit and heal many people.
This is a study of Jesus being covered with the odor of very expensive perfume as an act of love. It was extravagant love that made Mary make such an act of worship

St. Dunstan's Episcopal Church, Atlanta, GA: Stations of the Crossgypsychk
For centuries, Christians have followed and prayed the stations, which depict the final hours of Jesus’ life. The 14 stations begin with Jesus being condemned to death and end with his body being laid in the tomb. Following the stations is a pilgrimage of prayer and meditation on Christ’s suffering and death.
St. Dunstan’s parishioners, led by our seminarian Tim Black, have created our own version of this ancient practice. The stations are spread over our beautiful five acres of wooded land in suburban Atlanta. We invite you to come and walk them. But through the wonders of modern technology, you can pray these stations wherever you are.
I have walked these stations on our grounds several times. But when I saw the photos and read the artists’ explanations of their creative process and the meaning they found in creating these pieces, I was moved to tears.
I invite you to make this journey part of your Lenten discipline.
Faithfully,

The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

5. The Second
Glorious Mystery
As Jesus was blessing
them, He went up into a
cloud and vanished from
their sight. Suddenly two
angels were in their midst
and asked them, "Ye men
of Galilee, why stand you
looking up to heaven? This
Jesus who is taken up from
you into heaven, shall so
come, as you have seen
him going into heaven."
7. The Descent of the Holy Spirit
should incite in us a deep love of
God. Jesus sent the third Person
of the Blessed Trinity, the Holy
Spirit to guide and protect the
Church and to pour out His gifts
upon her members. May we learn
to use these gifts in our life, for
our own good and for the good of
all those whom God loves. May
we not let these marvelous gifts
go to waste. Let us thank God for
loving us so much.

without sin and Jesus would
not allow her body to decay.
The devil had no power
over her. Jesus took her,
body and soul up to Heaven
where He had a place
prepared for her. There she
is now, among the angels
and the saints praising God
and interceding on her dear
children's behalf.
10. The Fifth Mystery
The Coronation of
the Blessed Virgin
Mary as Queen of
Heaven and Earth.
11. Mary received the promised
"never fading crown of glory"
because her life so perfectly
resembled that of her Son's
and because she shared in all
His sufferings. As a reward
for her holiness and perfection
of virtues, Jesus gave her
dominion over the Angels and
the Saints by crowning her
Queen of heaven and earth.
