Advent at SJS
The season of Advent marks the beginning of the church year. All is decked out in purple, and the Advent wreath reminds us of the progression of Sundays. The Sunday readings range from end-of-the-world hair raising declarations about the end of time to striking promises of newness - God's Shalom.
At the heart of Advent lies an invitation to slow down and to quiet ourselves before God. God-with-us is undertaking anew the mysterious work of making a home in us for himself. This is certainly counter-cultural to all of the holiday hub-bub ratcheting up around us.
You are invited to join SJS in keeping Advent by lighting an Advent wreath of your own, joining us in the Rite I (Traditional) services on Sundays at 10:00 am, and by thinking about ways your Christmas spending can help those who are hungry, poor, homeless, sick or in prison. May God bless you during this Advent time.

9/16/07 - 19C - A Party in Heaven
Proper 19C-2007
Text: Luke 15:10 – “I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”
The little girl’s eyes were quite wide. About six yrs old, she looked fairly close to tears. Even though the hour was late, the store was full of shoppers. The girl approached a stranger – an older woman - something her mother had probably told her never, ever to do . “I can’t find my sister, she said.” Her face was clouded with anxiety. “What is your sister’s name?” The woman asked. “Tay” came the response. “Let’s go up to the front desk…they will know how to find your sister” and off they went. At the front desk, one of the sales clerks said, “Right, the sister was here looking for her just a little while ago…she might be outside…I’ll see if I can spot her.” She returned but no sister. The little girl went behind the big desk and sat down. A few minutes later, the sister came down the aisle – practically running. Her face was filled with acute worry. “Don’t worry,” said the sales clerk, “She’s right here.” The smaller girl ran out. The sisters embraced, and there was a burst of joy. Lost and so joyfully found!
Today we continue our journey through the gospel of Luke, or as a friend puts it, we are visiting Luke’s house and listening to his stories. During this time of the year, we are listening to the teachings of Jesus - in particular, his parables and we have two little ones this morning – the lost sheep and the lost coin. The parable that follows these is the parable of the Lost Son or the Prodigal Son which usually overshadows these two that come right before it. It might be helpful to know a little bit about what has just happened in Luke right before Jesus told these stories – to ask what prompted Jesus to come up with these little gems.
His ministry had been going well, and it was becoming obvious that many of the folks who were coming to hear him were not exactly respectable. Known sinners and tax collectors (these were known collaborators with the Romans and thieves in their own right – truly considered, the scum of the earth). The text tells us, the Scribes and the Pharisees – that is, the church people - were starting to grumble. They said, “ This fellow welcomes sinners and even eats with them.” For a parallel, we might think about having supper with an Islamic terrorist or person who deals drugs to children, or a street person who hasn’t washed in a month. I wonder, would you invite them to your nicely laid table with your mother’s crystal and silver? Probably not.
Jesus heard this grumbling and, in response told these twin parables - the shepherd who looks and looks until the lost sheep is found, and the woman who sweeps and cleans her house until a single lost coin was found. And, he tells how each one calls neighbors and friends and says --- rejoice with me….that is, I’m throwing a party, come on over…for what was lost is found…and then Jesus says…” By the way, there is more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance…” Think about that…joy in heaven and God throwing a party….over just one person who lets themselves be found.
There are some things to notice…both about God and us.
1. …I am not sure how much cognitive awareness the sheep had of its condition of lostness and the coin was inanimate object. If we think about human beings, equally we may not realize that we are lost…..off the track. The little girl certainly knew she was lost.
A good example of those who did not think they were lost were the Hebrew people we read about in the first lesson for today. They were out in the desert after having been miraculously delivered from slavery in Egypt –with mighty signs and wonders. Seemingly about 20 minutes after their marvelous rescue, Moses turned his back for a moment and went up on the mountain for a chat with God. They decided, “to heck with this God and this Moses. We need a god we can see..” They were probably thinking about the gods left behind in Egypt.
Talk about a short attention span! God said to Moses, and forgive my paraphrase, “This was obviously a mistake – they are a stiff necked people. I’m just going to destroy them.”
I like that word – stiff necked. It comes from the world of farming with animals when, say, an ox would not let itself be directed. It would not turn its head, but stiffened its neck and shoulders to continue in the direction it wished to go rather than letting itself be directed. To be stiff-necked is a combination of rebelliousness, stubbornness, and being unteachable.
And, being unteachable, as any teacher, employer, or parent knows is a formula for disaster. The Hebrew Children had gotten badly off the track and were so stiff necked, they didn’t even realize it. It took Moses’ passionate intercession for God to relent.
Let me ask you, when you get off the track, how long does it take you to realize it? And, what does it take for you to listen – the pleas of family or friends, the loss of precious people and things in your life. Do you have to go all the way and hit bottom before you realize you are lost? How stiff-necked are you? Are you teachable? Have a look in the mirror and be honest with yourself. To have a teachable spirit is the key.
2. Here is something wonderful to notice. In each case - the sheep, the coin, the Hebrew people - God is already actively at work. The shepherd is combing the mountain side, the woman is sweeping, and God is keeping an eagle eye on his people. They were not aware of him in the least. They were not aware of how focused, how intent the seeker was on finding what had been lost. So, too with us.
3. Notice…Jesus keeps using the word “repent.” The Greek word is metanoia which literally means meta (a change or turn, or transformation – think about the word metamorphosis) and noia (the Greek word for mind… a turn or change of mind). In these two parables – all the sheep and coin had to do was to let themselves be found..
If we think ahead to the parable of the lost or prodigal son.. What was necessary was for the son to realize that he was lost…to have a change of mind and to head in the direction of home…
Look at today’s psalm – Ps 51 – it was written by King David as he poured out his heart to God in repentance after his sin of adultery and, then, the murder he committed to try to cover it up We use this on Ash Wednesday. It is the consummate prayer of repentance in the Bible.
So, here is the bottom line --- are you lost in some way? Gotten off the track? So stubborn that you don’t realize it? Take a read over the Ten Commandments or some of Jesus teachings. How about, “Love one another as I have loved you” or “Forgive one another.” We really don’t have to look very far. Have you been lost or living in a hell of some sort (Maybe its even gotten a bit comfortable). Here is some wonderful news. God is looking for you, seeking you. He has left behind the saints in light, the angels and archangels and the company of heaven and is out looking for you…not to yell at you but to embrace you . So, let yourself be found and, then, get ready for a great big party! AMEN.

A Sermon for Easter Day 2007
Look out! God’s resurrection power is at work!
They came at early dawn and found an empty tomb. They were perplexed – confused – disoriented. Things were not as they ought to have been. Jesus’ body should have been right where they saw it so hurriedly laid and they had seen this with their own eyes.
BUT, IT WAS NOT! Our Holy God’s resurrection power hit the tomb like a speeding train, and the power of resurrection permeated every particle of that dead, already decaying flesh, and in some sort of divine nuclear fission, the mortal was taken up into the immortal and Jesus Christ was raised from the dead – the same, but very different.
What had literally been a dead end was transformed into something no one had ever seen before…like a path made through the sea or the blind having their sight restored.
Our God, in Christ Jesus opened a way where there had been none. No wonder they were perplexed – they had just encountered God’s resurrection power - the power that makes all things new, that brings the impossible, the improbable into being in the blink of an eye.
All praise to our living God – now and forever for his amazing resurrection power!
This is why we should never lose hope….as my friend Joseph says…never, ever, ever…this is why all through the scriptures we keep being encouraged to hold onto our hope. The writer of Hebrews says…hold onto your hope for he who promised is faithful..
Why hold on? Because if we let the resurrection power of God loose in our dead end situations whatever they might be - no telling what will happen and like the women who came to the tomb, you can bet, we will be confused and perplexed - at least initially
Now, it doesn’t do any good just to hold on, to keep hoping if we are not going to let Jesus Christ – the world’s greatest change agent – into the situation. And frequently, we don’t want to do that…we want to let him in, well, just maybe a little, as a thoughtful or perhaps even compassionate observer…but give up control…NO WAY. Let me assure you, holding onto hope as long as we hold onto control is HOPELESS! God can’t work in that situation except in a very limited way.
Because, when we let the resurrection power of God in Christ into our lives, we need to be prepared for things to change, and it will be perplexing – no doubt—So hold on to your hope in Christ Jesus…
Consider, what is the alternative?
It’s the question the angel asked the women…”Why do you seek the living among the dead?”
When we will not let the resurrection power of God into our lives, we become dead people--- we may look alive but there’s death at the center and that’s where it will be heading. BUT when we belong to Jesus Christ, when we are connected to his body – spiritually, organically, his life flows into ours. See, resurrection isn’t something that just happens when we die – it starts as soon as we are one with Christ and his life giving blood flows in our spiritual veins.And what we see is changed lives.
How about you? Are you seeking life in a graveyard? Where are you investing your hope, your self, your time, your treasure? Want a quick way to answer that question? Take a look at your checkbook or credit card statement…it’s a quick and usually accurate indicator of where we have invested ourselves.
And we have to ask, are we willing to let God’s resurrection power get hold of us?
And this applies, not just to us as individuals, but to our families, churches, businesses even governments. Are we willing to let God’s resurrection power into those things?
I’ve got some news for you. If we don’t, then we are like the women in that garden --- looking for life, looking for the living among the dead.
Do you want a dead life, or a dead church, or a dead marriage...dead hope? You can guarantee it by staying in complete control , because our insistence on doing things our own way is what keeps God’s resurrection power away…
Do you want to live…. to have an alive church, an alive marriage , and alive whatever? Then, say to the lord Jesus, come in. and fill me or fill this situation with your resurrection power.
You will be confused, you will be perplexed but you will also be amazed at what happens.
The angel said something else to the women- of which we should take note. “ Remember that he told you that he would be handed over into the hands of sinful people, that he would be crucified and that on the third day he would rise.” The angel said…Remember! He told you what would happen. Subtext: why are you perplexed? He told you it would happen in just this way! Humankind is truly slow to learn. And, we have a God who has communicated himself over and over again in the scriptures…
For instance, why in the world are we surprised at the pain and trouble that come if we break one of the ten commandments, say, like stealing? This is not rocket science. God gives us these things because they keep us from injuring ourselves, each other and from destroying our relationship with God--- cutting ourselves off from his resurrection power.
Yet, if we remember and come to ourselves and ask for that resurrection power to be at work in us, he is faithful…and the result in our lives? We truly live, we can have courage and hope, and the power to love and serve both in the difficult, painful times and in the peaceful times as well and we will have the Resurrected One as our companion forever..
So, on this Easter Day, I say….Look Out! God’s resurrection power – the same power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead – is heading your and our way. Let us embrace it and embrace our Resurrecting God with joy and praise and thanks and glory to the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Now and Forever…AMEN.
