Sermons from Lyndale
Mark 1: 29-39 and First Lesson
This biblical story has me thinking and praying a lot about hands and healing: about Jesus’ hands and our hands. Jesus’s hands and our hands.
Wisdom and Indigenous People’s Sunday
So what could a new wisdom look like to help us overcome these climate woes? Or what do we need to do to reconnect with that old wisdom that prevailed since before the beginning? How can we live in greater celebration of our connection with the earth and recognize God’s presence in all of creation?
Forgiveness
Our humanness and need for forgiveness often comes from places of hurt that we pass between each other. Like saying something that might hurt our partner’s feelngs when we ourselves are feeling misunderstood. Or the hurt of acting from a script written by trauma. Or the hurt of addiction or neglect or even just plain tiredness. Or like the hurt and harm of living in the lowest socioeconomic status of the Roman empire.
