Sunday, January 12 Traditions worship service.
“Behold, the Lamb of God!” That’s how John the Baptist acknowledges Jesus after baptizing him in the Jordan. This Sunday we celebrate the Baptism of Jesus, yet another example of God’s upside-down kingdom where the divine is baptized by the human. We can identify with John in our unworthiness but we are called to remember who we are in Jesus, that we share in his frailty as well as his victory. Today we reaffirm our pledge to resist evil in all its forms, repent of our sin and live into the service God has called us to.
Matthew 3:13-17
John 1:29-34
