About this listen

As Epiphany ends and Lent begins, this homily reflects on God’s proclamation of Jesus as the beloved Son and the urgent command to “listen to him.” Using the image of a lamp in a dark room, it calls us to name the darkness, attend to the light Jesus brings, and discern true teaching from false by how it echoes the prophets and Christ.

Practical and pastoral, the message urges daily practices—prayer, scripture, and attention to beauty—to keep the lamp lit, confront injustice and falsehood, and follow Jesus toward Calvary with compassion and courage.

We’re glad you’re here.

This homily was offered by the Reverend Amy Peterson; in the presence of the congregation.

If this reflection offered a moment of peace or perspective, we’d be grateful if you’d share, follow or leave a review. Your support helps others find 60 Church Street — and perhaps discover their own quiet moment of grace.

Contributing to this episode: Dr. Kevin Seal, Nanette Popa and Karen Marie Frederiksen.
