As we approach Lent, we want to invite you all to join us for our Lenten Series "Tell Me Something Good" by A Sanctified Art!

We often describe Jesus’ ministry as “radical” which comes from the Latin word “radicalis,” meaning “root” or “ground.” Therefore, the good news should bring us back to our roots, back to what grounds us: loving our neighbor, caring for the vulnerable, pursuing justice and mercy, and resting in God’s unending grace. This Lent, may the teachings of Jesus lead us forward. Let the good news ground us. And let that good news inspire us to take action in a world desperate to hear, see, and taste what is good.

Jesus preached the Beatitudes to people who were poor, grieving, hungry, and suffering... As we explore ways to incorporate the words into our lives, remember that we are called not only to look at the first half of each Beatitude, but also the second half.

So we wonder together: Who is standing among us today, waiting for comfort, mercy, or justice—and how might God be calling us to be the hands and feet of that blessing? Feel free to share your thoughts below!

This Sunday we sat with Jesus on the mountain, hearing good news spoken directly to those who were suffering. As our sermon reminded us, “The Beatitudes take on a much deeper meaning when you realize they are being preached to the very people they reference.”

May we hear these words not only as comfort, but as a call—to be Christ’s hands and feet, bringing God’s kingdom near to those who need it most. 💙

When you are afraid, because this world is cruel and harsh,
or because humans are deported and shot without reason,
or because we cannot remember how to talk to each other civilly,
I will be your pack. I will stay by your side. I will run with you
until we reach the sun.

—from the poem “Until We Reach the Sun” by Rev. Sarah Speed | A Sanctified Art LLC

Luke’s story insists that the good news of God has weight and presence.
But it needs to be amplified. Proclaimed.

In a world where fear is curated and fed to us,
proclaiming good news is a countercultural act.

In a world that tells marginalized communities to be quiet,
that punishes joy and rage alike,
joy becomes resistance.

—Rev. Dr. Boyung Lee, from her commentary on Luke 2:1-20 | A Sanctified Art LLC

It was almost as if the earth was saying, sure,
things are chaotic here,
but pause for a moment. Pull a flower bud off in your fingers.
Break the stem.
Slurp the tiny bead of honey at the base. Remember that even
when bad news is unforgiving and entrenched, good news grows
out of its cage, across the sidewalk, just to get to you.

—from the poem “Honeysuckle” by Rev. Sarah Speed | A Sanctified Art LLC

Euphobia, the fear of good news, often stems from past losses, fear of change, or the pressure of new expectations. Joy and relief may come first, but they’re often followed by a quiet dread. What now? What could this mean?

In Luke’s Nativity story, even angelic news stirs overwhelm. The shepherds tremble. Mary ponders. As she wraps her newborn in cloth, what thoughts rise in her heart?

12/25/2025

This is the shape of God’s dream:
news born in vulnerability,
joy proclaimed by the overlooked,
power shown not through force,
but through flesh.

So let us proclaim the good news loudly.
Let us make space for joy that shakes the walls.
Let us resist fear’s domination
by bearing witness to light, to peace,
to Christ among us.

Because tonight, we remember:

Fear may be loud, but love is louder.
Violence may be strong, but hope is stronger.
And the good news—God is here—will not be silenced.

—Rev. Dr. Boyung Lee, from her commentary on Luke 2:1-20 | A Sanctified Art LLC

Surrender to the joy this night of God incarnate born for us
Shout in the streets, wake those who sleep to join the angel chorus
Shout! Shout your glorias in all the earth and heav’n above
Shout! Shout the angels’ news that hope is born in Jesus

—from the hymn “Shout!” by Rev. Anna Strickland | A Sanctified Art LLC

God’s people are exiled under the thumb of a world power. Fearful artisans solder golden idols, hoping for security. But God is not found in the hands of the powerful or the shine of idols. God is present amid the rubble, comforting the forsaken and reminding them of their place in God’s story. No matter which empire holds sway, God sides with the subjugated and disenfranchised. Despite the fear that causes the very earth to tremble, God accompanies the downtrodden, upholding them with a steady hand.

—from the artist statement for “I Am With You” by Rev. Lauren Wright Pittman | A Sanctified Art LLC

God’s work in the world unfolds not through lone heroes,
but through the joined hands of those who choose:
relationship over self-protection,
accompaniment over certainty,
and presence over perfection.

—Rev. Dr. Boyung Lee, from her commentary on Matthew 1:18-25 | A Sanctified Art LLC
