No cing the Obvious: The coin offered to Jesus was
commonplace. It was so familiar a sight that people no
longer ‘saw’ it, so his enemies were caught off guard
when Jesus pointed out the obvious. The obvious can
escape us unless we take me to no ce. The Word of
God is familiar to us. We know it is important. But what
do we hear? O en Scripture needs pondering,
diges ng, before we can begin to understand it. True, it
is the task of the preacher to ‘make sense’ of the
Scripture, to connect it with our lives and concerns, but
there is a li le more to it.
Proclaiming Christ: When the Scripture, the Word of
God, is read aloud to the assembly gathered for prayer,
it is no longer ink on paper. This proclama on is an act
of prayer and faith. When proclaimed, it is Christ, the
Word of God, present among us. For those who have
ears to hear, the saving power of God is at work. This is
Christ, speaking to us for our salva on. To show
reverence and apprecia on for this gi , readers read as
best they can. Hearers follow a en vely. Latecomers do
not look for a seat, but wait. The pause following the
reading is a moment to reflect.

FOR OCTOBER
Peace. That the Lord may grant
peace to those parts of the world
most ba ered by war and
violence.
World Mission Day. That World
Mission Day may rekindle in every
believer zeal for carrying the
Gospel into all the world.
World Mission Sunday: With the theme, “Sow Much
Love” we recall today the fundamental mission of all
Chris ans: to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ
throughout the world. Few of us have the opportunity
or ability to do this directly, but our support is as
important as the work of the missionaries themselves.
Money is a very prac cal and real form of assistance,
but alone it is not enough. We are to add the power of
our prayer to their efforts and live in such a way that we
may be a source of inspira on to others. With this kind
of help, missionaries really are able to bring Good News
to those they serve. You may use the special envelope
in your set, or one in the pew and put it in with the
regular collec on.
May Christ lead us to know and share his love more and
more powerfully each day.
