Sermon 

The gospel reading from Luke begins this way:
Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming near to listen to him.  And the Pharisees and the scribes were grumbling and saying, "This fellow welcomes sinners and eats with them."  So Jesus told them this parable: "There was a man who had two sons.”
 
This story is all too familiar.  We know it as the “Prodigal Son.”  But I’m not so sure that this story is so much about the son, as about the father.

​Sermon

For many years, Caren and I consulted with churches in conflict.  Many of them were Episcopal churches, but we also consulted with a broad range of other denominations … Lutheran, Presbyterian, Disciples of Christ, and others.  We would meet with the leadership, interview members of the congregation, lead workshops, and present a report.

Sermon

Over two and a half million refugees have crossed the Ukrainian border to find safety in neighboring countries while their homeland is under brutal attack from Vladimir Putin’s Russian Army.  They have left everything they own except what they can fit into a few suitcases or backpacks.  Their homes, markets, hospitals, schools and other institutions are being destroyed by bombs, rocket attacks, and mortar shelling.

Sermon

On Ash Wednesday I preached about original blessings … that we were made in goodness … for goodness.  We then moved to the Invitation to a Holy Lent, and the imposition of ashes …  Remember you are dust, and to dust you will return.”  These were the challenging words we heard as we began our Lenten journeys and they invite us to face a bewildering paradox … we are beloved of God … were made in goodness … and we were made for goodness … and we will die.  The first truth does not prevent the second.  The second truth does not negate the first.

​Sermon

Meister Eckhart was a German Christian mystic who lived in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries.  He believed that God was present in all living things, and he wrote that hidden in all of us is “something like the original outbreak of all goodness, something like a brilliant light that glows incessantly … and this fire is nothing more than the Holy Spirit.”
