| Summary: John the Baptist proclaims a radical demand for repentance, but his directions for people’s lives after their baptisms are quite moderate. They are to share what they have with those in need and to do their jobs honestly. The coming of the Messiah to whom John points will not abolish God’s world or our work in it. We are called to preserve and protect it as God brings his reign to fulfillment through the work of Christ. |

| Summary: It’s difficult to be cheerful when there’s so much left to do this holiday season, especially when we’re trying to make up for all we missed last year due to the pandemic. The last thing we need is someone telling us not to worry — unless it’s the apostle Paul, writing to Philippi from death row in Rome — whose message of joy should serve us as well now as it did 2,000 years ago! Don’t worry. Rejoice! |
