Welcome to the Bloor Street United podcast for March 27th, 2011. This podcast comes to you from Bloor Street United Church in downtown Toronto. It is the third Sunday of Lent, and this week, Reverend Martha Ter Kile puts a new spin on a famous story from the gospel of John. Jesus has travelled to Samaria with his disciples. While they go into town to buy food, he meets a Samaritan woman by a well, and strikes up a conversation. She is surprised that a Jewish man would speak to her at all, much less engage in the debate which follows.

Sermon:"Transfiguration Sunday"
"Transfiguration Sunday" March 6th, 2011
This week, Reverend Martha Ter Kuile preaches on the bible passage in which Jesus goes to a mountaintop, where he allows three apostles to see him transfigured as he speaks to Moses and Elijah. Martha discusses whether modern people can make any sense of this strange vision, particularly in a world where many are post-theistic, no longer believing in God at all.
