Welcome to The Lectionary Lounge! We hope we found us for the practical Bible commentary and sermon prep inspiration (while we have MDivs, professional Bible scholars we are not), and stay for the vibes. Each week Pastor Byrnese (she/her) and Pastor Mikayla (she/her) will chat about what scripture(s) they are preaching on that week, as well as what in life is keeping them from writing their sermons in a timely fashion.
