Bridging the Gap Wednesday at The Gathering, Rev. Seth Stearns, Minister of Spiritual Life and Learning, presented Part 2 of the program, "Bridging the Gap," a study focused on building connections and understanding across the political divide while grounding our discussions in Scripture. This timely and very informative study was helpful to me as we face the political divides in our country

The Bible Tells Me So -Part 3: "Peacemakers" This Sunday, November 3, I continue my Fall sermon series, The Bible Tells Me So, with Part 3: "Peacemakers." As you might guess, this sermon is based on one of the beatitudes in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, "blessed are the Peacemakers." Our first thought about peacemakers might be that their singular desire is to help people, communities, or nations get along with each other. That may be the ultimate desire, but often, a peacemaker's first task is to speak the truth, name the issues, and face the reality of the situation. Such an approach does not always endear the peacemaker to those in conflict. We will also listen to Paul's letter to the Philippians, in which he implores the church in Philippi to "not be anxious about anything." The words "anxiety" and "anxious" have come up often in many of the pastoral conversations I have had lately. We may be divided politically as a nation, but our collective anxiety seems to be a common trait! Working for peace is never easy, but if we believe the Spirit of God is with us, and she is, then we can take on anything. As Paul instructs, "By prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." That bit of 2000-year-old advice still speaks to us today.

This Sunday, October 27, I continue my fall sermon series, The Bible Tells Me So, with Part 2, "The Least of These." The sermon is inspired by Matthew 25 and Jesus' teaching that anytime we feed the hungry, share water with the thirsty, visit the imprisoned, and clothe the naked, it is as though we are doing these things for Jesus himself. In this story, Jesus calls on us to put our faith into action and let our hands and feet carry the love of God to the world. The Bible is a fascinating document that evolved and even changed as its contents were being gathered. Today, our understanding of this sacred word continues to evolve and change as well, especially when we take it seriously and not literally. By listening carefully to these ancient ideas while engaging our modern minds with them, we may be surprised to discover how contemporary the Bible's concepts and teachings are.

What's up, dudes? It's a Sherman Hemsley vehicle about a small Philadelphia church. Yes, it's an Amen Christmas, and Joe Fulton the Christmas Aficionado is with me to wax poetic about it! Well…or at least reminisce about watching it. From December 1986, it's “Your Christmas Show of Shows!”It's Christmas, and Philadelphia's First Community Church is preparing a Nativity play. They've sent out invitations to local celebrities and politicians and one has finally responded positively! Unfortunately, they only have two days to get it ready. Oh, and Deacon Frye has insulted and run off the director!The staff works hard to finish the preparations for the show, but a freak snow storm prevents the film crew from attending. Of course, the staff is heartbroken. The children, however, are unfazed, and perform the pageant with zeal and joy. Moved by the sweet innocence of the youth, the staff join in singing “Away in a Manger.”Homemade knit socks? Check. Hand seen costumes and individually typed programs? Got ‘em. Judy Winslow? Umm…yes? So grab your costume, give your best animal noise, and sing along to this Amen Christmas episode!Christmas AficionadoGive us a buzz! Send a text, dudes!Check us out on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Totally Rad Christmas Mall & Arcade, Teepublic.com, or TotallyRadChristmas.com! Later, dudes!

“Amen” is a sitcom that aired from 1986 to 1991 on NBC. The show stars Sherman Hemsley as Ernest Frye, the Deacon at the First Community Church, who also works as a personal injury lawyer. Ernest is known for his harebrained schemes and often finds himself in trouble due to his dishonesty. The dynamic at the Church starts to change after the hiring of the new pastor, Reverend Reuben Gregory (Clifton Davis). Upon arrival the Reverend quickly becomes the object of the Deacon's daughter's affection. The show was set in Sherman Hemsley's real-life hometown of Philadelphia and was part of a wave of successful sitcoms in the 1980s and early 1990s that featured predominantly black casts. Will the S1E1 boys have faith in Amen's ability to entertain you for 22 minutes? Listen as they deep dive the show's pilot episode and find out.
