Contraria Sunt Complementa: Sermon on Proverbs 9 from Sunday, August 19: "The voice of Wisdom where we are"
http://contrariasuntcomplementa.blogspot.com/2012/08/sermon-on-proverbs-9-from-sunday-august.html
Because opposites are complementary, and only wholeness leads to clarity. Sermon on Proverbs 9 from Sunday, August 19: "The voice of Wisdom where we are". Proper 15, Year B, RCL. Or this: “A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.”. Or this: “Beware of entrance to a quarrel, but being in [it], bear [it] that the opposed may beware of thee.”. OK, so that last one is from Hamlet. In fact, I’ve long suspected Shakespeare of simply lifting some obscure chapter of Proverbs and...I’...

Midnight Evangelism | A Desert Father
https://adesertfather.org/2016/07/19/midnight-evangelism
The Rev'd Robert Hendrickson. Asymp; 5 Comments. When I went in to the store, a young woman was at the counter. She was in soccer shorts and a t-shirt and seemed to be having a pretty animated though convivial conversation with the man working the counter. I got my few items and went to stand in line while wondering why her transaction was taking so long. I overheard her say, “It’s a great church! I hope Jesus blesses your ministry! Larr; Previous post. Thoughts on “Midnight Evangelism”. Thank you for th...

Of Papal Encyclicals and Charleston: Mutual Responsibility and the Body | A Desert Father
https://adesertfather.org/2015/06/19/of-papal-encyclicals-and-charleston-mutual-responsibility-and-the-body
The Rev'd Robert Hendrickson. Of Papal Encyclicals and Charleston: Mutual Responsibility and the Body. Asymp; 2 Comments. In reading these two pieces of news I could not help but wonder what their common thread was. It is simply this God gives and we take. God gives us diversity and we debase the image of God. God gives us creation and we grind, tear, and rip that gift to pieces. We are faced with the breaking of the Body and respond with the whole coming together of a Body blessed by Resurrection power.

New Haven Episcopal Wedding at Christ Church :: Kelly Prizel
http://kellyprizel.com/gay-episcopal-new-haven-wedding-at-christ-church
New Haven Episcopal Wedding at Christ Church. Incense and architecture give Christ Church the feeling that you have stepped into an old European church. Founded in 1854, Christ Church has plenty of history and you get the sense of that everywhere you look. I had already shot a gay wedding at Christ Church. And loved how welcoming it was of everyone involved. My old studio manager even sung in the choir at their wedding! 8220;We highly recommend: Kelly Prizel (Photographer Extraordinaire)”. Wise Words: &#...

Because opposites are complementary, and only wholeness leads to clarity. Sermon on Mark 6 from Sunday, July 22: "Discipleship when life happens". I've recently started work as a part-time assistant for pastoral care at St. Paul's Parish. On K Street in Washington, DC. As I say in this sermon, "life happened" (and also death) early Friday morning in Aurora, CO. So my first sermon in this new position took an unexpected turn. Please continue to pray for all those affected by Friday's shootings. I thought&...
