The reading from Matthew’s gospel this morning tells the story of a landowner who has two sons.  He tells one son to go out and work in the fields, but the son refuses, then later changes his mind, and goes and gets the job done.  The father tells a second son to go out and work in the fields, and the sons says that he will, only to never appear.  Jesus asks those who are listening, “Who did the will of the father?”  And they answered, “The first.”

In his 1993 book, Wishful Thinking: A Seeker's ABC, Frederick Buechner offers this advice about reading Scripture: "Don't start looking in the Bible for the answers it gives.  Start by listening for the questions it asks.”  When you hear the question that is your question, you have begun your journey.

I think it is fair to say that all of us, at one time or another in our lives, has been hurt by another person … intentionally or unintentionally.  Sometimes it is a betrayal of trust.  Perhaps someone owed you some money and didn’t repay the loan … like in the story from Matthew’s Gospel this morning.  Or, maybe they had made a promise … even a sacred vow … that they then broke.  It could have been that they simply didn’t include you in an event that you felt was important, or they said something hurtful.  In any case, the relationship was/is broken.

Printer-Friendly Version (Sermon)

Has someone ever come to you and said, “We need to talk?”  Or, have you had to go to someone and said those four words to them … “We need to talk?”  Most of the time, if another person approaches us with those words, they’re not saying they want to chat about the weather, or the latest sports event, or share the latest celebrity gossip.  They’re saying, “Something is broken between us, and we need to sort it out.”

Ken Clawson was Director of Communication for President Richard Nixon at the time Nixon resigned from office during the Watergate scandal.  Ken Clawson was also my wife’s … Caren’s … college roommate’s husband.  Long before I met Ken I had heard him at a press conference explaining a sudden shift in policy matter by saying, “Events have overtaken circumstances.”
