John explores the power of our senses to hold memories alive, some of which can be such a gift of life. He uses that as a way into the gospel reading for the 5th Sunday in Lent, John 12:1-8. This is the story of someone found by love, who offers love. In contrast we have Judas. Sadly Jesus' response to Judas has been used down the centuries to justify continuing Judas's cynical approach to the poor, cf Jesus or Deuteronomy.What gifts have sustained us. - What memories of life help us? - What are the moments that remind us that we have been held by love?And how we offer these kinds of moments to others?I wonder in this lent how we might pay attention to those memories and opportunities, and all they offer us?The notes for this sermon can be found here.

5th Sunday in Lent (Year C)Isaiah 43:16-21 | Psalm 126 | Philippians 3:4b-14 | John 12:1-8
John 12:1-8, 23-27. In God’s kingdom things are turned upside down. For example, Jesus said, “Whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.” But what does losing your life for Christ look like? And what results if we do it?
