SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, February 7, 2021
Dear Friends in Christ —
“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour, and that one, is what we are doing.” - Annie Dillard
Are you comforted by this statement? Threatened? Confused? What other phrases are conjured to point to the importance of how we spend our time? “This is not a dress rehearsal.”
You’ve heard me reference, Debi Thomas, an essayist for the weekly webzine, Journey with Jesus. She’s director of children's and family ministries at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in Palo Alto, California. I enjoy her writing. It stems from life experience rather than theological systematics. It resonates for me. Her weekly essay often directs me to facets of the text that I may not have seen before. #ContinuingRevelation
So with her prompt, I see that Mark is giving us a gift of a day in the life of the incarnate God. So how does Jesus spend a Sunday afternoon? Let’s look together and share communion. Grab your common elements.
Let’s be strengthened.
