Matilda leads Morning and Evening prayer today. Morning Prayer – Matilda considers a passage from Mark’s gospel, chapter 12, verses 18 – 27. This scripture describes how Jesus responds to a question raised by Sadducees who did not believe in the resurrection and who asked about the status of a wife passed from one brother to the next at death; “And as for the dead being raised, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the story about the bush, how God said to him, “I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob”? He is God not of the dead, but of the living; you are quite wrong.’”
