Concluding the Lenten series of sermons on parables, Anne Padget addresses one of the most challenging of Jesus' teachings.

The fourth Sunday in Lent is the Feast of Mothering Sunday, and Saint Mark's also welcomed on this day Shewan Abubkari in baptism. Beth Keith explores the theme of the mothering community in the context of the parable of the Good Shepherd.

'Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did not sow ... I was afraid, so I went and hid your talent in the ground'. The parable is so well-known, and so often interpreted in particular ways. Janet Morley encourages us to see another meaning in it.

'Lent comes providentially to awaken us from our lethargy' says Pope Francis. In the Lenten series on parables, Mark Newitt awakens us to the issues in the parable called the Shrewd, or perhaps Unjust, Manager - the different titles attributed to it being a sign of the challenges it raises.

On this first Sunday in Lent, Michael Bayley begins a cycle of sermons examining Jesus' parables. The church's Lent study groups have been encouraged to read and think about the parables, using Paul Gooder's book (Canterbury Press, 2020).

Jonathan Williamson takes the readings on this, Church Action on Poverty Sunday, to explore what it means to radiate God's presence.

Anesia Cook is the vocations advisor for the diocese of Sheffield, and vicar of St Peter and St Oswald's Church. In her sermon, she reminds us that God delights in our human diversity. Isaiah tells the people of their rebellion against God and invites them to change their ways. She invites us to join in the dance, and continue fighting for justice.

In this service, the choir sang Ralph Vaughan Williams' setting for the coronation service of Queen Elizabeth II, 'O Taste and See'. Jonathan Williamson invites us to do the same as he explores the miracle of the Wedding at Cana.
