    When we can’t carry it anymore

    Figuring out what to preach this week is hard enough. But when Jesus goes off on a whole generation, we should take note.

    In the humility of turbulent moments

    Who do we take Jesus for? Messiah. Lord. Our titles speak to our relationship. But what do we expect for him?

    Repent — why we keep having to remember what it means

    The word and the concept get us all twisted. We think we’ve got it. Or that the church does. And then we prove we don’t.

    Between Proper 8 + 9 (Year A)

    Before we read this week about Jesus criticizing this current generation, we should figure out what he’s been up to.

    A cup of cold water

    In the midst of community tragedy, we see ready examples of generous welcome. What is it that we offer each other?

    Why I’m excited about my first Social Media Sabbath

    A social media sabbath is about taking time away from distraction. For personal and mental health. This one is for a month.

    When neutral isn’t neutral

    We have a false image of neutrality. Ending affirmative action damages the neutrality equality actually brings to us.

    Welcomed or Welcomer (Proper 8A)

    There is a distinct challenge in this week’s gospel. But it is based more on where we see ourselves in it. As welcomed or welcomer.
