| Prayer: Finally About Relationship, Not Results – by Aaron Fulp-Eickstaedt |
|
What do you believe about the efficacy of intercessory prayer? As pastors, elders, and/or congregation members, surely you’ve spent some time thinking about exactly how and even if prayer works.
|
| What is Church? – by Sharon Core |
|
While this may seem an obvious question with an obvious answer, I am learning that is not the case. The Arlington congregation is in the midst of a time of discernment and this question lies at the heart of how we will move forward.

| The Theology of Lipstick – by Susan Querry Graceson |
|
I’ve been thinking about lipstick lately. It started a few weeks ago when a young seminary classmate complimented me on my lipstick. At age 49, I am older than most of my classmates, and tend to come to class a little more put together than the average fresh-out-of-undergrad student. This friendly comment reminded me of a similar comment I heard while serving as Director of Children’s Ministry at First Presbyterian, Arlington.

| Social Justice: Doing What God Demands – by Henry Brinton |
|
Last month’s Easter celebration provided the bookend to Holy Week, the most sacred but spiritually divisive week of the year. We Christians used this time to focus on the suffering, death and resurrection of Jesus – the one we believe to be the Messiah and son of God.
