Using <em>A Just Passion: A Six-Week Lenten Journey, <\/em>and the lectionary, we will look at various aspects of justice, its importance to God and why the modern church has often regrettably failed to live out God\u2019s call to \u201cdo justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with the Lord.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Our dream team from episode one returns this week to discuss communal suffering and the Paschal Mystery. Ruth is joined again by David Bailey and Tina Harris to explore these topics. How do oppressed people experience the Paschal Mystery? What is redemptive suffering? How do we determine where we are in the cycle of suffering, death, burial and resurrection and how can we discern if God might be calling us towards the next movement in this cycle?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lectionary scripture for this week:<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nEzekiel 37:1-14<br \/>\nPsalm 130<br \/>\nRomans 8:6-11<br \/>\nJohn 11:1-45<\/p>\n<hr style=\"clear: both;\" \/>\n<p><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/strengthening-soul-your-leadership-ruth-haley-barton\/id1214483830\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SUBSCRIBE ON APPLE PODCASTS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can also access podcast on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.stitcher.com\/podcast\/ruth-haley-barton\/strengthening-the-soul-of-your-leadership?refid=stpr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Stitcher<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/41tz8kmZTi7wyYakvWUKZz\">Spotify<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none; min-width: min(100%, 430px);\" title=\"Season 19: Lent Week 5 | Communal Suffering: Can These Bones Live?\" src=\"https:\/\/www.podbean.com\/player-v2\/?i=re49v-13c4b33-pb&amp;from=pb6admin&amp;share=1&amp;download=1&amp;rtl=0&amp;fonts=Arial&amp;skin=1&amp;font-color=&amp;logo_link=episode_page&amp;btn-skin=7\" width=\"100%\" height=\"150\" scrolling=\"no\" data-name=\"pb-iframe-player\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button outline\" href=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/strengthening-the-soul-of-your-leadership-podcast\/season-nineteen\/\">Listen to other episodes from Season 19<\/a> <a class=\"button-secondary outline\" href=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/strengthening-the-soul-of-your-leadership-podcast\/\">Access past podcast seasons<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-17080 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/David-M-Bailey-Headshot-1200x1200-1-150x150.jpeg\" alt=\"David M.
