The vignette of Jesus blessing the children reminds us of those Scriptures (Psalm 147, Deuteronomy, St Luke) that emphasize the importance children have in God’s plan of salvation, as well as how their guileless trust is a model for how we should approach God in faith.
Deuteronomy
Fr. Lenny’s Sermon – 6th Sunday after Epiphany – 2017
The lectionary’s trek through the OT Law leads us through Deuteronomy where God lays out a choice before us: to choose life, obedience, and loving him. May we all make that choice favorably. (Please excuse the water spill at the beginning of the recording.)
