The Living Water - 3rd Sunday of Lent
from The Laughing Mystics: An unorthodox journey through the liturgical year · host Laura Lewis-Barr, Jungian Artist - Marci Madary DMin, Educator, Spiritual Director
Hold on to your hats as we dip into familiar "waters" and discover big surprises. We start with the questions: What is the Living Water? What is it in my life?Laura mentions the fairy tale, The Water of Life. We also talk about how fairy tales provide a "folk" commentary on Christianity, kind of like a midrash. Others are exploring this idea too. We talk about atonement theory and find helpful quotes from Joseph Campbell and Fr. Rohr. We use the shorter Gospel reading with some added from the longer version. https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/030826.cfmThe Sunday ReadingsJoin the community: Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/laughingmystics/Daily Poetry: Visit Marci’s Blog and subscribe to Laura’s Substack for your daily dose of verse.Share the mic: Send a voice memo to [email protected]/review easily: RateThisPodcast.com/thelaughingmysticsFollow + listen: https://pod.link/1799776273New episodes drop Thursday mornings.More from Marci Madary: https://www.insideoutspirituality.com/More from Laura Lewis-Barr: https://psychescinema.com/Merch: https://www.zazzle.com/store/laughing_mystics/products(If your platform hides links, visit the episode webpage or Spotify.)
