The devotion for today, Wednesday, March 31 was written by Cathedral of Hope's Senior Minister Rev. Dr. Neil Thomas and is narrated by Adam Carter. Today's Words of Inspiration come from John 13:21-30: After he had said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified, “Very truly I tell you, one of you is going to betray me.” The disciples stared at one another, at a loss to know which of them he meant. One of them, the disciple whom Jesus loved, was reclining next to him. Simon Peter motioned to this disciple and said, “Ask him which one he means.” Leaning back against Jesus, he asked him, “Lord, who is it?” Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish.” Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So, Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” But no one at the meal understood why Jesus said this to him. Since Judas had charge of the money, some thought Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the festival, or to give something to the poor. As soon as Judas had taken the bread, he went out. And it was night.
“So rather than looking to someone else to be the leader, to solve whatever it is that needs to be solved, may we be wise enough to take the leadership of Moses and Jesus to the next level, and cross the threshold into a new way of being.” Senior Minister Rev. Karen Lindvig returns to look further into our current series The Alchemy of Leadership. On this Palm Sunday, during Passover, religious traditions offer us the examples of Moses and Jesus, as leaders of their times. How did they step out of an old life and into a new one? What were the challenges, the strategies and the surprises, that we can learn from as we prepare to move from pandemic thinking to a post-pandemic world? Our Worship Arts includes special guest Chava Mirel. Check out the full service video here. Take advantage of all the ways we can stay connected during this time, including after-service fellowship, Daily Prayer Boosts, and Wednesday evening prayer services.
