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 …

Luke 3:7-18Di Sam Bush

December 8, 2024: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Well, we have made the annual Advent turn. You know, the turn our gospel just took for us. 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 …

Southern Ring Nebula (NIRCam Image) – Webb Telescope December 1, 2024: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Welcome back from the great Thanksgiving feast-a-thon! I hope yours was as wonderful as mine was – filled with good food, good friends, and a rainy parade. In the gospel (cheery again, right) Jesus says “There will be si…

Luke 21:25-36Di Dave Zahl

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…

November 17, 2024: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Well, that’s a cheery gospel, isn’t it? If you ever doubted if the church’s lectionary was in Advent in this time, this text ought to be perfectly clear about that, because Advent always begins with the second coming of Christ – with these end times passages. But, I think…

Mark 12:38-44Di Sam Bush

November 3, 2024 – The Feast of All Saints – May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. As I have said before, I just love that phrase from our collect of the day today: “ineffable joys.” Ineffable, which means “too great or extreme to be expressed or described in words.” I love it today especially because I feel ineffable joy, the …

PHOTO: Diana Wilcox October 27, 2024: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. The lesson we heard from the letter to the Hebrews started with “The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office.” Nice, right? As you might guess, this priest isn’t planning on preaching from THAT …

Hebrews 4:12-16Di Amanda McMillen

Job 1:1, 2:1-10Di Sam Bush

September 29, 2024: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. In our first reading, from the book of Esther, we got to hear a small part of this incredible woman’s story. For the life of me, I cannot understand why our lectionary, the readings chosen for each week, and used by nearly all denominations, only gives us this little bit…

James 5:13-20Di Amanda McMillen

May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Gosh it is so good to be back here with all of you! While I really enjoyed my vacation, and needed it so very much, I missed you’all! I missed the choir too! And it is so awesome to be returning on Choir Appreciation Sunday. What an amazing sound they raise up to God every week! And, I am s…

August 18, 2024: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. One phrase we often hear, particularly in political punditry or business consulting, is that of “splitting the baby.” Have you’all heard that? Now, why on earth would anyone talk about doing such a gruesome thing? Well, glad you asked… because it was something that marked t…
