  • It’s Tough to Imagine…, Independence Day – 2012

    “Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” It’s tough to imagine a more unsettling teaching for Americans to hear on Independence Day than this passage from the Sermon on the Mount. Resisting evil doers, turning the other cheek and praying for those who persecute us are not things we seem to do very…

  • In Christ Jesus, the Walls Come Down, Proper 11 (B) – 2012

    We humans are great builders – towns and turbines, subways and satellites, farms and factories. We can take justifiable pride in these accomplishments, but too often we tend to do our building for all the wrong reasons. Remember the Genesis story of the Tower of Babel? Those builders achieved amazing things – they were on…

  • Of Cabbages and Kings, Proper 12 (B) – 2012

    The world is a hungry place. People are hungry for food, for jobs, for love, for care, for leadership that cares. The list of our hunger goes on and on. What the Bible knows is what we all know – all of our hunger centers around a spiritual void. We are hungry for God. That…

  • Propio 8 (B) – 2012

    Todas las enseñanzas de la Palabra de Dios para este domingo se centran en la generosidad del amor de Dios, que nos crea para salvarnos y liberarnos aunque se dice que el ser humano de nuestros días está muy enfermo. Sufre de una terrible enfermedad, provocada por la falta de voluntad, que lo hace incapaz…

  • Natividad de San Juan Bautista (B) – 2012

    Hoy se celebra la Natividad de san Juan Bautista. Juan el Bautista fue muchas cosas. Fue un judío apocalíptico del primer siglo. Fue el último de los profetas del Antiguo Testamento. Fue el precursor de Cristo. Pero hoy, en su día de fiesta, vamos a pensar en Juan como un terapeuta de masaje espiritual. Un…

  • Propio 7 (B) – 2012

    En el siglo VI antes de Cristo, Jenófanes de Colofón se refería a los modos instintivos de pensar del ser humano cuando escribió: “Los etíopes dicen que sus dioses son negros y chatos; los tracios dicen que sus dioses son de ojos azules y cabello rubio. Si los bueyes, caballos y leones tuvieran manos y…

  • Propio 6 (B) – 2012

    Generalmente a través de una parábola, quien la formula, se propone sacudir y estremecer la manera de pensar y actuar de cada oyente, basado en el sistema de valores, que  consciente o  inconscientemente profesan los individuos y las sociedades. Con frecuencia se piensa que las parábolas son relatos simples para gente sencilla, e ingenua. Nada…

  • John as Spiritual Massage Therapist, Nativity of St. John the Baptist – 2012

    Today we celebrate the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist. John the Baptist was many things. He was a first-century apocalyptic Jew. He was the last of the Old Testament prophets. He was the forerunner of Christ. But today, on his feast day, let’s think of John as a spiritual massage therapist. An Episcopal priest…

  • Questions Propel Our Faith Journey, Proper 7 (B) – 2012

    Patrick Overton reflects in his poem “Faith”: “When you come to the edge of all the light you have And take the first step into the darkness of the unknown, You must believe one of two things will happen: There will be something solid for you to stand upon, or you will be taught how…

  • Propio 5 (B) – 2012

    Somos inteligentes y libres. Como bien sabemos nuestra iglesia sostiene que son tres los elementos que alimentan nuestra fe: las Sagradas Escrituras, la tradición de la Iglesia – es decir, la profesión de fe y la práctica sacramental de la Iglesia-, finalmente, la razón – nuestra habilidad no tan sólo de pensar sino también de…
