    BIBLE READINGS, PSALM & SONG, & THEMES

    Isaiah 43:1-7 Passing through the waters

    Acts 8:14-17 Prayer for the Holy Spirit

    The gospel this Sunday is about Jesus being baptized by John the Baptist. A voice speaks from heaven, and the Spirit descends like a dove. This story is also about us: we too have been baptized, we have heard God’s loving call, and we have received the Holy Spirit. What is God’s voice like? Psalm 29 says that God’s voice can break the cedars and strip the trees bare, but also give a blessing of peace.
