We open the Hebrew songbook and find a roadmap to Jesus that runs from identity to destiny: the divine Son who rules, the eternal Priest who mediates, the rejected cornerstone who rises, and the coming King who judges with perfect equity. Rather than treating these passages as vague poetry, we follow the tra…

Week 4 of my reflections on Erin Wathen's Calling All Angels centers on how we react to disruptions in our lives.
