1 Kings 18:20-39, NRSV
Mark 9:1-8, NRSV
Reflections
Be joyful, keep the faith, and do the little things.
— St. David of Wales, d.589
- The main question: where is God?
- We need prophets’ voices that scream out
- but that is not a sustainable way to live spiritually
- In the Bible, there are miraculous fires and there are prophets but the grand final voice is Jesus’ limping, dying, and rising again in resurrection to new life. Jesus is what God has to say, and God says, “Listen to him”
