Scarcity or Abundance

Scarcity or Abundance

Mark 8:1-13. There are times in life when it may feel as if there is not enough to go around to meet our pressing needs. If we look more closely we may see that life is characterised not by scarcity but abundance.

Be Opened

Be Opened

Mark 7:31-37. In this small incident in Mark’s Gospel, Jesus points to the core of his message and the heart of his mission. It is not what we might normally think of as the defining characteristic of Jesus’s purpose.

With Gratitude

The Diocese of British Columbia acknowledges that for thousands of years the Coast Salish, Nuu-chah-nulth, and Kwakwaka’wakw peoples have walked gently on the unceded territories where we now live, work, worship, and play. We seek a new relationship with the first peoples here, one based in honour and respect, and we thank them for their hospitality.
