Sermon Good morning. It’s great to be here with you at St. Paul’s this morning. Your Rector and Wardens have invited me here as a way of introducing me to you as I begin a three month process of working with Father Steve and your vestry. During these upcoming months your vestry will be re-discerning their perceptions of the best of what St Paul’s is today and the best of what St. Paul’s can become in the future. I will remain invisible to most of you, as my work will be behind the scenes, encouraging your leadership to use their many gifts to lead St. Paul’s into a sustainable and life-giving presence for the new and challenging time in which we live.

Sermon Who wants to hear a sermon from Leviticus? If you raised your hand, you may not know much about Leviticus. That’s okay. A lot of folks don’t, and don’t care to. But you’re getting a sermon from Leviticus today anyway. I feel like I have to give you some of this stuff, too – it’s in the Bible, after all. Continue reading February 23, 2014: Holy As God?

Jesus once said to his disciples, “You are the salt of the earth.” Just figure he includes us, too. Even though Jesus sounds pro-salt, I don’t think he endorses our modern addiction to salt. So keep tasting your fries before you salt them. Salt used properly savors and preserves, and at the right temperature melts snow. I’ve learned what those big trucks are scattering out the back now that I’ve been here into my seventh winter. At least Jesus doesn’t say, “You are salt of the road. Go stick to cars and turn them white.” Salt usage can be overdone. Just click on News then on the Apostle icon.
I, being of not so sound mind, do hereby proclaim today as Waiting Sunday. I know, you’re thinking: “Didn’t we wait enough in Advent?” “Yes, but,” when what you await arrives, something new appears for your next “wait.” And we wait all over again. So today – I call out Waiting. |
