932 | Coffee to Go | Ash Wednesday | Year A

“If you humble yourself before the Lord” ... you will be in the perfect position for Lent. In this Ash Wednesday episode of Coffee to Go, hosts Karin Peter and Blake Smith turn to Psalm 51 – the ultimate example of humility and repentance, to think about the importance of self-reflection and turning our hearts toward God for a good “cleaning.” But beware, cleaning the heart takes on special meaning in the Hebrew scriptures.  Asking for a clean heart is asking for a whole lot more than just getting a “bath.” It’s about getting a whole makeover. Listen to more episodes in the Coffee to Go series. Download the Transcript. Listen to the Percolating on Faith episode on Satan. Book mentioned by Karin Peter is: The Quest for the Historical Satan, by Miguel De La Torre and Albert Hernandez. Thanks for listening to Faith Unfiltered!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.
