Common Table's February 22, 2026 sermon. First Sunday in Lent - John 11:1-17 // A World of Pure Imagination w/Drew WillsonWith the death of the Rev. Jesse Jackson, Civil Rights activist and colleague of the Rev. Dr. King, we enter the Lenten season pondering prophetic imagination. What voices will inspire and guide us today as we struggle with truth vs. lies, personal wealth vs. commonwealth, white Christian nationalism vs. the way of Jesus, and so much more? What dream will lead us through the Lenten valley to the heights of Easter glory?Listen as we enter Lent with the story of Lazarus and a song of imagination... straight from Willy Wonka's chocolate factory.

Tuesday of the Fifth Week of LentJohn 8:21-30So Jesus said to them,“When you lift up the Son of Man,then you will realize that I AM,and that I do nothing on my own,but I say only what the Father taught me.The one who sent me is with me.He has not left me alone,because I always do what is pleasing to him.”Because he spoke this way, many came to believe in him.
Monday of the Fifth Week of LentJohn 8:1-11Jesus bent down and began to write on the ground with his finger.But when they continued asking him,he straightened up and said to them,“Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.”Again he bent down and wrote on the ground.And in response, they went away one by one,beginning with the elders.

We adore you O Christ and we bless youBecause by your holy Cross you have redeemed the world.On this weeks podcast as we journey through the joyous holy season of Lent, we provide a pause moment to reflect on the Stations of the Cross. The Stations are a traditional Lenten devotion walking the Via Dolorosa with Christ, meditating on his Passion and Death. In part two of this weeks podcast, we pray the Stations of the Cross using a version from Trocaire.In part one we have our regular run through the liturgical odds and ends of the coming week as head into the last stretch of Lent before Palm Sunday including our up coming saints of the week.In part three we pause to reflect on the third Johannine Gospel of Lent (John 11:1-45) - the Raising of Lazarus from the Dead and what it could mean for us to pause on this Lenten season. *****If listeners want to dip back into other reflections we have done in the past on the Stations of the Cross check out the archive on our old blog under the tag - Stations of the Cross.Text us at +353 874668950 or email at comeandseeinspirtaions@gmail.com

Monday of the Fourth Week of LentJohn 4:43-54They told him,“The fever left him yesterday, about one in the afternoon.”The father realized that just at that time Jesus had said to him,“Your son will live,”and he and his whole household came to believe.Now this was the second sign Jesus didwhen he came to Galilee from Judea.

Friday of the Fifth Week of LentJohn 10:31-42He went back across the Jordanto the place where John first baptized, and there he remained.Many came to him and said,"John performed no sign,but everything John said about this man was true."And many there began to believe in him.
John 7:11–17[11] The Jews were looking for him at the feast, and saying, “Where is he?” [12] And there was much muttering about him among the people. While some said, “He is a good man,” others said, “No, he is leading the people astray.” [13] Yet for fear of the Jews no one spoke openly of him.[14] About the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and began teaching. [15] The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How is it that this man has learning, when he has never studied?” [16] So Jesus answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me. [17] If anyone's will is to do God's will, he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority. (ESV)
Thursday of the Fifth Week of LentJohn 8:51-59So the Jews said to him,"You are not yet fifty years old and you have seen Abraham?"Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you,before Abraham came to be, I AM."So they picked up stones to throw at him;but Jesus hid and went out of the temple area.
Wednesday of the Fifth Week of LentJohn 8:31-42"We have one Father, God."Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me,for I came from God and am here;I did not come on my own, but he sent me."
Tuesday of the Fifth Week of LentJohn 8:21-30Jesus said to the Pharisees:"I am going away and you will look for me,but you will die in your sin.Where I am going you cannot come."

Monday of the Fifth Week of LentJohn 8:12-20Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world.Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will havethe light of life." So the Pharisees said to him, "You testifyon your own behalf, so your testimony cannot be verified."
Friday of the Fourth Week of LentJohn 7:1-2, 10, 25-30Some of the inhabitants of Jerusalem said,"Is he not the one they are trying to kill?And look, he is speaking openly and they say nothing to him.Could the authorities have realized that he is the Christ?But we know where he is from.When the Christ comes, no one will know where he is from."
John 3:11–18[11] Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen, but you do not receive our testimony. [12] If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things? [13] No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. [14] And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, [15] that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.[16] “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. [17] For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. [18] Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
Thursday of the Fourth Week of LentJohn 5:31-47"I do not accept human praise;moreover, I know that you do not have the love of God in you.I came in the name of my Father,but you do not accept me;yet if another comes in his own name,you will accept him.How can you believe, when you accept praise from one anotherand do not seek the praise that comes from the only God?"

Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs: - 596 (in 'Divisions among the Jewish authorities concerning Jesus') - The religious authorities in Jerusalem were not unanimous about what stance to take towards Jesus. The Pharisees threatened to excommunicate his followers. To those who feared that "everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and destroy both our holy place and our nation", the high priest Caiaphas replied by prophesying: "It is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation should not perish." (abbreviated) - 58 (in 'the Covenant with Noah') - The covenant with Noah remains in force during the times of the Gentiles, until the universal proclamation of the Gospel. The Bible venerates several great figures among the Gentiles: Abel the just, the king-priest Melchisedek - a figure of Christ - and the upright "Noah, Daniel, and Job". Scripture thus expresses the heights of sanctity that can be reached by those who live according to the covenant of Noah, waiting for Christ to "gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad". - 60 (in 'God chooses Abraham') - The people descended from Abraham would be the trustee of the promise made to the patriarchs, the chosen people, called to prepare for that day when God would gather all his children into the unity of the Church. They would be the root on to which the Gentiles would be grafted, once they came to believe. - 706 (in 'The Spirit of the Promise') - Against all human hope, God promises descendants to Abraham, as the fruit of faith and of the power of the Holy Spirit. In Abraham's progeny all the nations of the earth will be blessed. This progeny will be Christ himself, in whom the outpouring of the Holy Spirit will "gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad." (abbreviated) - 2793 (in 'Our Father') - The baptized cannot pray to "our" Father without bringing before him all those for whom he gave his beloved Son. God's love has no bounds, neither should our prayer. Praying "our" Father opens to us the dimensions of his love revealed in Christ: praying with and for all who do not yet know him, so that Christ may "gather into one the children of God."
