SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, January 30, 2022

Dear Friends in Christ –

For a good Presbyterian, I’m finding inspiration these weeks from a Jesuit pastor and a Franciscan priest.  

Greg Boyle lives the radical inclusion taught and modeled by Jesus as gospel – which it is. He is the founder and director of Homeboy Industries, the world's largest gang-intervention and rehabilitation program.  

Richard Rohr founded the Center for Action and Contemplation because he saw, well, a deep need for the integration of both action and contemplation.

Both men have made impact for the kindom of Jesus God by teaching and living their faith in Jesus’ all-consuming and all-inclusive love. This has led to reclaiming and redirecting lives by savoring the life we’re given in all its iterations. 

Rohr says, “The absolute religious genius of Jesus is that he utterly refuses all debt codes, purity codes, religious quarantines, and the searching for sinners. He refuses to divide the world into the pure and the impure, much to the chagrin of almost everybody—then and now.”

Let’s learn together. Be inspired together. Grow closer to God together. Worship together.   

See you in worship. Invite someone to come along or tune in with you – 

Best love in Christ –

 

This Sunday we'll baptize Jack James Koca, son of Joshua and Jacqueline Koca.
