Scoping things out? Fantastic.
Here is a short summary of last Sunday and a brief preview of this upcoming Sunday.

Last Sunday’s Conversation:
August 17, 2025 — Ordinary Time (10) — John 1:1-9
Considering the world around us, maybe even the universe around us, people have wondered for thousands of years whether there is a logic to it all. Perhaps it’s a logic of rivalry and competition, competing to survive. Perhaps it’s a logic of machinery, operating within particular systems as a trade for survival. Perhaps it’s a logic of chaos, requiring that flexibility and a willingness to not take anything personally are familiar tools.
John 1, representing Christ as the logic of God, dares us to believe that there is an altogether different logic to things. John 1 frames things in terms of the logic of God being a logic of creativity, goodness, and love. What could that mean for us in our understanding of the meaning and logic of the world and realities we experience around us?
