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, and today, we just heard the story of his baptism. Just to recap – the baptism of Jesus is in all three of the synoptic gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. It doesn’t appear in John, as the community that likely wrote that gospel would have considered this something antithetical to their understanding of Jesus. There are some differences in the accounts of the baptism in the synoptics, but one thing striking in this account from the author of Luke and Acts…
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 archangel Gabriel tells her she is to be the God bearer, the one to birth our savior into the world. Now, it seems to me that the lectionary folks could have put the two readings about Jesus’ cousin John into one for last Sunday, and given Mary more of her due. Instead, they reduce her story down to one tiny paragraph, which we will hear next week, about her visit to her cousin Elizabeth, John’s mom. As next week is our pageant, and I won’t be preaching,…
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 Bethlehem. And this gospel author does set a scene for us – one that has deep meaning too. There is a reason he names all those political and religious leaders. It isn’t just to set the story in the context of time. The author name drops all the rulers and religious leaders of the places of the life and death of Jesus. The Emperor Tiberius ruled during the time in which Jesus was active in ministry, arrested, and crucified. Pontius Pilate was…
