The Layman's Guide to the Lectionary

The Layman's Guide to the Lectionary

By Rev. Steve Andrews Jr.

Many churches use a lectionary, a series of Bible readings, in their worship together. In a one year lectionary, you would read the same Scriptures in church this weekend next year that you would read this weekend. In this podcast, we will do a weekly Bible study (50-60 minutes) on the LCMS' three year lectionary, which is what we use in the congregation I serve. Our lectionary includes an Old Testament reading, Epistle reading, and Gospel reading. It is Pastor Andrews' goal to help you grow deeper in your understanding and love of God's Word. You may reach him at andrews@gracefaithlove.org.

Year B - Proper 26

This weekend of 2021 will be Reformation Sunday in our churches.  Those readings are the same each year, and so you can tune in to that episode here: https://anchor.fm/rev-steve-andrews-jr0/episodes/Year-A---Reformation-Sunday-ele6mo.

But for those who aren't celebrating the Reformation, and are sticking with the three year lectionary, this Sunday is Proper 26, and you would read from Deuteronomy 6:1-9, Hebrews 9:11-14 (15-22), and Mark 12:28-37.  So, I've put together some notes for you on those readings, also.  The Lord be with you!

Year B - Fifth Sunday in Lent

Year B - Fifth Sunday in Lent

We read this weekend about the new covenant of God's forgiveness for us (Jeremiah 31:31-34), how Jesus is our great High Priest (Hebrews 5:1-10), and we see how Jesus' kingdom is not like this world's kingdoms, nor is it what the disciples expect it to be (Mark 10:(32-34) 35-45).

Introduction and Purpose

Introduction and Purpose

Many churches use a lectionary, that is a series of Bible readings that are used in their worship together.  In a one year lectionary, you would read the same Scriptures in church this weekend next year that you would read this weekend.  In this podcast, we will do a weekly Bible study (45-60 minutes) on the LCMS' three year lectionary, which is what we use in the congregation I serve.  Our lectionary includes an Old Testament reading, Epistle reading, and Gospel reading, for each week of the church calendar year.  It is my goal to help you grow deeper in your understanding of God's Word by providing context and commentary, as well as showing you how these verses all point you to who Jesus is and what He's done for you!
