The Passion of Jesus poses a perennial liturgical dilemma, one rooted in the biblical narrative’s centuries of prominence in Holy Week services. Episcopalians, consciously or not, confront it each year in their lectionary readings, particularly on Good Friday. The Episcopal Church cited its “problematic” references to “the Jews” when it offered sermon guidance eight years ago for Episcopal clergy struggling to provide the proper context. How to solve this problem of the Gospel of John? The trouble lies in the history of anti-Judaism associated with this foundational Christian text.

"Do people know they can come to me for help when they are in need?” It’s a question New York’s Cardinal Timothy Dolan poses as a prompt for “a kind of ‘Coronavirus Pandemic Examination of Conscience.’” He writes this in a new pastoral letter “Fostering a Culture of Life as a People of Hope.” He issued it on the feast of St. Joseph on March 19 and, like his new book, I Am with You: Lessons of Hope and Courage in Times of Crisis, is the kind of reflection we need as we come out of the worst of the coronavirus pandemic. And in reviewing some of what we’ve been through, he offers some spiritual and practical guidance for the deeper pandemics we face.
