RevMerle: Musings and Mutterings on what I see God up to in this world.: RevMerle

“Like Ragweed” Mark 4:26-34

Jesus tells parables to kick start our brains into thinking in a new direction. This is never more evident than it is in Mark’s Gospel, where just a few of those parables are recorded but where they also carry their most enigmatic punch. The parables Jesus tells do not so much answer questions as raise […]

“Resting Heart Rate” Mark 2:23-3:6

I’ve been wearing one of these fancy “FitBit” devices now as I’ve been engaged in trying to improve my overall health. Grandkids will do that to you, make you want to stay around longer.

The story behind “Savior, Again to Your Dear Name”

Singing a parting hymn to close a worship service has been an important practice of the Christian Church since the time of our Lord’s meeting with the disciples just before His crucifixion: “And when they had sung a hymn, they went out…”. This hymn, written for the closing of a music festival in England, is … Continue reading The story behind “Savior, Again to Your Dear Name”
