Our series is Means of Grace. In it, we will be exploring spiritual practices that help us grow in discipleship. The next to last of these is “The Poor and Hungry” and looks at how our charity and generosity is an act of faith. Why should we help others? How do we help those in need? How do we act out our faith to ensure it isn’t empty? Can we make it a regular part of our lives? As we explore how we interact with God, we grow in faith and love.
Our scripture reading for today comes from Isaiah 25:1-5, James 2:14-17, Matthew 25:31-46.
Immigrants hold a special place in scripture. “The Immigrant” is the first message in Those in Need. How does the Old Testament speak about immigrants? The New Testament? What specifically do we learn about Christ in Matthew that connects us to immigrants? Let us serve God by helping those in need.
Our scripture readings come from Deuteronomy 10:12-22, Ephesians 2:11-22, and Matthew 2:13-15.
