On the Fifth Sunday of Lent many Christians hear the gospel passage of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead [RCL; RCL]. We have the time to read it reflectively while we are home. Reflective reading allows us to inhabit the scripture; its word is living and effective. We can allow scripture to have an effect on us.
