In the Name of Christ the Crucified. Sunday in Lent singing “Sing My Tongue the Glorious Battle.” In Lent we see that war is declared, and battle come down, that as the head of the Serpent was prophesized to be crushed, so it is.

New Year’s Eve, 2015 – Isaiah 40 and Romans 8. In the Name of Christ Jesus, our Newborn King. And in our Gospel lesson we hear the injunction that we are to watch, to be ready – for we are still assuming a 2015 – we don’t know when Christ will return – He might beat the ball drop tonight. Or He might not. Like a thief in the night.

This is where Rev. Eric J Brown posts his theological (and theo-political, that is on the politics of theology) posts. Friday, May 22, 2015. Never Surprised by Sin. As a Christian, we should never be surprised by sin. Whatever tales, whoever falls - it should never surprise us. Sadden us - sure. Warn us - most definitely. Make us ready to forgive and care for the hurting - it should go without saying (but sadly, because of our own sinful hearts we need reminding). Rev Eric J Brown. May 29, 2015 at 6:36 PM.

In the Name of Christ Jesus, our Advent King. What does He do? While that seems like a broad and wide question, it is basically what Jeremiah was asking the Kingdom of Judah in our Old Testament text. See, Judah was in a bind. And so Jeremiah preaches. Says that Babylon will win, and they do. But in our text he als...
