Isaiah 55:10-13
As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, 11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. 12 You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. 13 Instead of the thornbush will grow the juniper, and instead of briers the myrtle will grow. This will be for the Lord’s renown, for an everlasting sign, that will endure forever.” |
In this week’s Gospel Conversation, John Franklin, Bishop Anne van Gend and Bishop Kelvin Wright join Michael Godfrey to explore Isaiah's vision of God's life-giving Word. In a chaotic world, they reflect on the enduring hope that God's creative Word still brings life, peace and purpose—and ask how we might become good soil in which that Word can flourish.
