The readings at this time of year cover Jesus' miracles and teaching. This is where we meet the Jesus of the every day, the Jesus of farmers and fisherman, who told stories of lost sheep, a man beaten up by the roadside, a ponsy landowner, fishers of men, treasure buried in a field, seed sown by the wayside, or, as in today's gospel, where even some of his disciples struggle to understand what Jesus means and the analogies that he is using. And some turn away. Our God is a God of the people, not in far off Jerusalem, but walking every day through the fields, and along the shores, of Galilee.

Please note: Next Sunday´s service begins at 1130am!
