Mind the Gap: Lectionary Commentary
Ever noticed those missing verses from scripture passages in the revised common lectionary? Sometimes we need a new way of looking at scripture as we prepare to preach. Mind the Gap is a podcast that pays extra attention to what gets left out. How does it change the context of the rest? Is there anything in there that could be fruitful for proclaiming the good news? Join us as we ponder these missing pieces.

In this first volume of our SPECIAL EDITION episodes, we're taking a break from the lectionary! Romans 8:31-35, 37-39 is a common choice for funeral readings... But we had to wonder about what is going on in that single excluded verse. This passage in its entirety (without the gap) will also show up as an assigned reading later this summer, so you can listen now and also come back to it later for some bonus commentary since we won't be covering it then!Hosts:Pastor Annemarie Hartner-CookPastor Rebecca TrulandMusic:
