Sign-Up Genius offers opportunities for mowing<\/a> both at Peace and at Sadie and Joe\u2019s house this summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\nJason\u2019s Jots<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Reflecting on Sunday\u2019s Message\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIf you are like me, you don’t always love to learn. Learning requires that I admit I don’t know something…that I have a gap in my knowledge. Sometimes it’s easy to admit that – like when I’m trying to fix my dryer and I have no idea how to take it apart so I watch a YouTube video and then follow the instructions. But if I’m honest, I don’t like admitting that I don’t know something. I’m more likely to defend a faulty position than patiently and humbly learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most of the time, I like when the things I’m ‘learning’ confirm what I’m already thinking. I’m not sure that’s called learning, but I enjoy it much more. Sometimes, I hear someone say something and they put language around a feeling or an instinct I’ve had. That might not be ‘learning’ in the traditional sense, but it’s really helpful to have language for what my gut has been saying to me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the story that we engaged on Sunday morning from Mark 7, I wonder what type of learning Jesus did in that moment. Was the Syrophoenician woman teaching Jesus something brand new that he never knew before? Was Jesus suddenly made aware that he was worthy of praise and adoration? I don’t think so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maybe Jesus just had his calling confirmed. He knew what he was on earth to do and his interaction with this woman solidified the next steps he needed to take. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But (and this is my favorite idea) maybe the Syrophoenician woman put language – and in this case she put flesh and blood – on the calling of Jesus. Maybe he had a gut instinct of what he was on earth to do, but imagining how far and how important it would be was not conscious to him. Might this be why his reaction to her is so seemingly harsh. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jesus came as a Jewish Messiah, with specific cultural and societal expectations. There was a priority on helping and potentially rescuing a marginalized and oppressed people. This had been God’s way of things since the time of the exodus from Egypt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the original calling of Abram (who later became Abraham) was that he and his descendents would be ‘blessed to be a blessing to all the other nations’. Israel was never meant to be the dominant global superpower, but the drink offering poured out for the transformation of others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maybe Jesus knew he was called to be a Jewish Messiah, and his gut was telling him that in doing so he was also called to be a blessing to all the nations of the world. Maybe his interaction with the Syrophoenician woman helped him see with clarity that this meant healing and loving and serving those from other backgrounds – like Caananites, Roman soldiers, Samaritans, and many others he would engage during his life on earth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In any posture, learning requires humility. With Jesus as our guide, we too can learn from those around us…whether they teach us something new, confirm what we know, or put language to the instincts we have. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Next Sunday, June 26 Jason\u2019s Message \u2013 Let’s travel back in time to the prophet Jeremiah. One of the most famous verses in the Bible is Jeremiah 29:11 – ‘For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for prosperity and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.’ This verse has rightly given comfort to many in difficult times. But if we explore the context of this beautiful verse, new lessons might come to the surface.

June is PRIDE Month As a reconciling community, we believe in the inclusion of all people \u2013 all made in God\u2019s image \u2013 and celebrate the uniqueness that is each person. Reconciliation means to remove the barriers that have separated people from the wholeness of relationship. We acknowledge that the church has often failed to remove such barriers and has been the one to put barriers in the way. Our hope and prayer is to truly be the Body of Christ, together in communion, reconciled to one another. If there are ways we can continue to remove barriers, we want to learn. Pride celebrations will be taking place on June 25th and 26th, including a UMC booth for reconciling congregations.
