Second Sunday after the Epiphany (Contemporary)
Is the Church a refuge for the weak? Yes — and precisely for that reason, it shines with the radiance of Christ’s glory.
Rev. Cody Turner reflects on the surprising truth that God gathers the wounded, unimpressive, and weary and makes them the very people through whom His glory is revealed. Drawing from Isaiah, the Gospel of John, and Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians, we are reminded that the Church’s strength does not come from human achievement, but from belonging to a faithful God who calls, sanctifies, and sustains His people.
The Church is the place where we belong, where we are set apart for God’s purposes, and where we are strengthened by gifts we did not earn — all so that Christ may be known, worshiped, and obeyed to the ends of the earth.
