Phineas & Ferb Meet Epiphany

This Sunday is the fourth Sunday in Epiphany. In the church calendar, Epiphany means, “to show, to reveal, to make known,” and so during this season we tell these great stories from the life of Jesus, about how God began to reveal who Jesus really was and what he was trying to do. We are following the Revised Common Lectionary (actually we are following textweek.com which is an incredible resource for everyone from Sunday School teachers, to CM directors, to pastors & worship leaders), between Advent and Pentecost this year, so that we can be sure and discipline ourselves to tell all of the stories that need to be told, not just the ones I gravitate toward or like to tell.

Here’s what we’ve been doing with links to the audio on the first three:

Epiphany One: Herod & the Magi crashed into the Baptism of Jesus
Epiphany Two: Calling of Disciples in John
Epiphany Three: Calling of Disciples in Mark
Epiphany Four: Healing in the synagogue (Coming next week)

So the healing in the synagogue is all about authority. Here’s a little Phineas & Ferb to get you thinking about authority. Although this show usually annoys me, I love this song & this clip.
