Second Sunday of Lent
Live Zoom/Virtual Worship
10AM
The second covenant in this year’s Lenten readings is the one made with Abraham and Sarah: God’s promise to make them the ancestors of many, with whom God will remain in everlasting covenant. Sarah and Abraham receive new names as a sign of the covenant, and we too get new identities in baptism, as we put on Christ.
Reading
Genesis 17:1-7, 15-16
God blesses Abraham and Sarah
Mark 8:31-38
The passion prediction
Worship is at the heart of what we do at Redeemer.
