Who Do We Worship?
Who is God?
Who is Jesus?
Who is the Holy Spirit?
And who are we?
These are basic questions we learn to ask ourselves anew, year after year in our faith walk. For many years, we may not sense a change in what we understand as answers to these questions. Other years, life has brought us experiences that may lead us to see more deeply who God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and we humans are. Some of us may even have experienced what St. John of the Cross describes as “the dark night of the soul,” a time when our sense of understanding goes dim and we walk by faith through difficult times until God brings us into new revelations.
This Sunday, the lectionary offers readings that touch on these questions. Take a look at all the selections here:

This Sunday we will look not only at this week’s Genesis reading, an account of the creation of humans, but also the second account of creating humans, not included in this week’s lectionary. While the readings may seem to contradict one another, we will read them for the richness each gives.
See you Sunday!
