Episode Synopsis

This week I'll compare the experience of a mass to a meal at a restaurant, and I'll ask us all to consider the part we play in making any communal event into a dance. I hope it's a blessing to you.

2. What I Learned This Lent: An Owl's Surprising Appearance, Raised Catholic episode 118
3. Song: Lord of the Dance, by The Irish Tenors
4. Scripture: Zephaniah 3:17
The Lord your God is with you,    the Mighty Warrior who saves.He will take great delight in you;    in his love he will no longer rebuke you,    but will rejoice over you with singing.”
5. Journal questions:
What small thing can I do today to make an everyday interaction into a dance?
Where is God asking me to be lighter and more playful? Where is He inviting me to dance?
What did I notice today about how people were serving me? How can I return an act of service to someone else?
