For your Lenten reflection this week, I offer this reflection from Ron Harmon.

03/15/2026

From the Community of Christ Gathering Resources, here is our Fourth Sunday in Lent reflection.
As we follow Jesus into the Lenten wilderness, we ask: What does faithfulness look like in our world today? Jesus shows us a way shaped by emptying—a willingness to release power, privilege, and excess so that love and justice can take root.

This Lent, we are invited to notice the ways our culture’s economic systems often value profit over people and consumption over creation. Jesus calls us instead toward a vision of economic justice—a “kingdom economy” grounded in generosity, fairness, and creative abundance. The scriptures are full of examples of God’s call to a kingdom economy where love reigns over fear and we invest in the treasures “that do not wear out,” where treasure and heart meet that value the depth of creation and human life over systems that take and deplete.

Based on a practice by St. Ignatius of Loyola, we are invited to reflect on which kingdom we are living and creating by our daily choices.

Take a moment to review your week and silently reflect or journal, which kingdom did your daily actions and choices contribute to this week?

(Pause for 1 minute of silence).

What is one thing you can do this week to contribute to God’s kingdom economy of generosity, fairness, and creative abundance?

Silently reflect and then name these aloud!

Scripture Reading: 31 Instead, seek [God’s] kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.32 “Do not be afraid, little flock, for it is [God’s] good pleasure to give you the kingdom. 33 Sell your possessions and give alms. Make purses for yourselves that do not wear out, an unfailing treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. 34 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
