27th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C, RCL)

You can live a long time off a vision like the transfiguration. But there is much else in this world we must look at, from which we dare not avert our eyes.

We are one body, even as the world comes apart.

How did we get from here to “boys don’t cry”?

The spirit is willing, but the inner horticulturist is weak.

How did these psalms about enemies feel in 1940? How do they feel today?

I look to the hills, not to a politician.

Jesus doesn’t seem to think so.

These days it seems there are more and more opportunities for collective lament.

The Bible shows us what to do with our frustration, outrage, and complicity.

Forgoing congregational singing as a spiritual discipline

On this week's Sunday Morning Matinee, Matt and Adam talk skateboarding, family, brokenness, and Bing Lau's incredible film Minding the Gap.

God's answer to Habakkuk? Wait.

 Have you noticed God’s preference for small things?

God isn't just hidden. God hides. Why?

“My message is that you don’t have to change who you are to care about this issue.”
