This Weekend in Worship
On Ash Wednesday we began our journey toward baptismal immersion in the death and resurrection of Christ. The Sundays in Lent lead us to focus on five covenants (promises) God makes in the Hebrew Scriptures and to use them as lenses through which to view baptism. First Peter connects the way God saved Noah’s family in the flood with the way God saves us through the water of baptism. The baptismal covenant is made with us individually, but the new life we are given in baptism is for the sake of the whole world.
