Preaching the Lectionary 2026: Year A | Proper 6

What do you do when trusting God feels impossible? This week, pastoral intern Emma Strickland reflects on the stories of Sarah, Elizabeth, and Mary—ordinary people who met God’s promises with doubt, laughter, and questions. Through their stories, Emma explores a simple but powerful truth: faith is not the absence of uncertainty. Sometimes trusting God means taking one more step, even when the future seems absurd and the answers are unclear. And in those moments, God often gives us the gift of community to help carry our faith until we can find it again.
