		<description><![CDATA[Genesis 18: 1-14
Colossians 1: 21-29
Luke 10: 38-42
There are two stories of divine hospitality in this morning’s readings.  The first is the story of the three mysterious visitors to Abraham, one of whom is designated as “The LORD.”  There is an Orthodox icon of this event where the three visitors are portrayed as angels; [...]]]></description>

Acts 13:14b-26
Luke 1:57-80

In what follows, I  am going to depart from the usual way in which responsible expository preachers are supposed to preach sermons.  I am not going to focus primarily on the meaning of the biblical texts themselves.  Rather, I am going to [...]]]></description>

Not That Kind of Shepherd!
I want to dissuade you from a certain misreading of this morning’s gospel passage.  You can easily find examples of what I mean if you Google “images” and look for “Good Shepherd.”  We are all familiar with those images from the walls of countless Sunday School classrooms, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Luke 19:29-40; 22:39-23:56
The story of the Hidden King is one that we are familiar with from many fairy tales and other stories—stories like The Prince and the Pauper, King Arthur, The Lord of the Rings, and the Frog Prince.  It is the story of a king whose identity is unknown by those around him. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Exodus 17: 1-7
Colossians 1: 15-23
This morning’s lectionary readings have to do with a mystery—not a theological mystery, but a mystery in the sense of a detective novel.  In a mystery, there are a number of clues, but how they tie together, and how they provide the solution to the problem is not given until [...]]]></description>

Hebrews 9:24-28
Mark 12:38-44
When I was a child I already showed signs that I was going to be a theologian when I grew up.  I used to wonder about things like this:  If Jesus is everywhere, then is Jesus sitting in this chair?  If I sit down in the chair, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Morning Prayer
Psalm 37
1 Kings 11:1-13
James 3:13-4:12
When I looked at the passage about King Solomon from 1 Kings this morning, I was very tempted to preach a very short sermon with some concrete applications.  So, first, for those of you who are men, and who are beginning your studies here at Trinity School for Ministry—if [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[12th Sunday After Pentecost
Joshua 24: 1-2,14-25
Ephesians 5:15-20
John 6:60-69

We find something rather odd when we look at the passage from Joshua in this morning&#8217;s lectionary readings. In this passage, Joshua has gathered all the tribes together at a place called Shechem, and Joshua is renewing the covenant that God made with Israel at Mount Sinai, when [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is the first sermon I preached right after The Episcopal Church&#8217;s General Convention 2003.  At the time, I was an aspirant for Holy Orders in the Episcopal Diocese of Connecticut.  Within a month I had withdrawn from the ordination process.  Two years later, on July 13, 2005, Bishop Andrew Smith invaded [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Easter season begins with the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus from the grave, and it ends with Trinity Sunday. The resurrection is concrete and specific, something that even children can relate to and understand. Easter eggs and baby chicks speak of new life. We celebrate Easter with the singing of exuberant hymns—“Up from [...]]]></description>
