24th Sunday after Pentecost Year A

Join Rev. Emily E. Ewing (they) and Rev. Kay Rohloff (she) to explore new and nerdy connections to the scripture for the 24th Sunday after Pentecost, also known as Lectionary 32 or Proper 27, which falls on November 12th this year, including our deep dive into lighting! 

The scripture we refer to for this episode can be found here.  For more on the Big Bang, check out our first season episode for the 2nd Sunday of Christmas with Dr. David Kordahl. We also mentioned this year’s Holy Trinity episode on prisms!  For more on weddings, check out this year’s episode for the 20th Sunday after Pentecost. Wikipedia has a great timeline of lighting technology and this site has a great article about the evolution of lighting!  Emily mentioned their article in Sojourners re-writing the Amos passage after the Uvalde shooting, EVN the bioethicist on tiktok, and diakonia.faith’s Pride Vigil (Suzannah’s part starts at 14:41).

CN: we briefly mention a school shooting in the first reading.
