Who Chooses the Reading?

The Bible reading we choose every week is the "focus scripture" selected from the Revised Common Lectionary, © 1992 Consultation on Common Texts. The lectionary provides three readings—one from Hebrew Scripture and two from the New Testament, plus a psalm or song from the Bible. Many congregations use all three readings on Sundays and greater Holy Days. Others use only one reading like the focus text provided here. The Revised Common Lectionary is widely used in Protestant and Anglican churches, and is similar to the lectionary used in all Roman Catholic congregations. That means that every Sunday, Christians of many traditions throughout the world are literally on "the same page"—a powerful symbol of our unity in Christ.
