Dare we not run, but stay?

Dare we stay and watch, stay and bear witness?

Dare we face this week with open hands and open hearts?

The First Word

On the banks of the river, I had this sense that a new plotline was emerging. Jesus of Nazareth would be the first word in the story of what might be.
