19:58

March 23, 2025: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Today The Episcopal Church does a thing. We usually go right along with the Revised Common Lectionary – the assigned readings for a Sunday followed by Lutherans, Presbyterians, Methodists, and a whole lot of others, and also the Roman Catholic Church (on which it was based) …

February 23, 2025: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. “Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.” Seriously Jesus? I mean, seriously? Have you SEEN what is going on here in the US? Sometimes I can imagine a conversation with Jesus going like this: Jesus and som…

February 2, 2025 – Candlemas: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. “Two turtledoves, and a ground hog who sees his shadow.” What, not right? Well, at any rate, Merry Christmas everyone! And you thought all that was over weeks ago when those crazy wild guys from the East showed up. Well, not so fast. If you have your tree still…

January 26, 2025: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Heard any good sermons this past week…or at least a snippet of one? I have no doubt that most, if not all, of you did. And today, we heard the beginning of another one, though we only got the opening sentence in what we just heard, when Jesus said, “Today this scripture ha…

January 19, 2025: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Eleven years ago this very day, on January 19th 2014, I stood in this pulpit for the very first time as your Rector. Neither you all, nor I, could never have known what was to be when we first began to be joined as priest and parish. One thing for sure now, is that I feel …

January 12, 2025: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Hello everyone! I sure missed being among you these past two Sundays. I especially missed being able to welcome those strangers from the East who came to offer gifts to the child Jesus. But, now we move away from Jesus as a baby or even as small boy. He is now a grown man,…

December 15, 2024: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Okay, here’s the thing…the gospel you just heard isn’t the one prescribed for this Sunday. The church would have us hear another passage about John the baptizer, and never hear the annunciation of Mary (except if you come to Lessons & Carols). It is the story of when the …

Today, we are not hearing about the second Advent, but the first. After weeks of his return, we are heading into weeks of preparing the way for his birth. We have made a turn toward …

November 24, 2024: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. This Sunday we enter into a week of thanksgiving to God for all of life. We gather with family and friends, and laugh, cry, cheer for our favorite teams, and argue over some thing or another. Perhaps though, you are wondering, with all the news of the past few weeks, what…
