Please join us virtually at Our Savior’s Lutheran Church, in Topeka, Kansas, at 9am (or whenever you are able) on Sunday, February 28, 2021, for the Second Sunday of Lent as we worship our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
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. Paul says this promise comes to all who share Abraham’s faith in the God who brings life into being where there was no life. We receive this baptismal promise of resurrection life in faith. 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.
