The Revised Common Lectionary is often read and heard on Sundays without sufficient time to let the words and images settle in. Wrestling Year C: Connecting Sunday Readings with Lived Experience provides beginning thoughts, references, images, and evocative language to prepare hearts and minds to listen to ancient experiences in light of contemporary events. Energizing our encounter with scripture beyond our current understandings is a key entry point to both mystical and prophetic gifts and practice. This book is suitable for individual spiritual growth through devotional or meditational reading. Each page contains a Scripture reference and comments. There are 370 entries, more than enough for a year at one-a-day. The book could also be used in a study group setting. Preachers will also find insights into connections with contemporary events and encouragement to stretch traditional approaches to sermons. Rev. White, retired after 38 years of pastoral service, pulls tradition, ritual, and authorized or designated holy words out of their institutional boxes to fill in hollow spaces and regather power to move into a better common future. This book celebrates the freedom of G*D [an asterisk (*) indicates there is more beyond our familiar understandings of God]. The meditations in this book invite your own engagement with what a Spirit still has to teach that was too difficult for us as of yesterday. Your extension of these thoughts on the texts of the Revised Common Lectionary is an important part of our communal journey to repair creation's promise.
