Miki and I take you on a hunting adventure to South Africa in this episode. Just over a year ago, we bid on a trip to Africa at the Wild Sheep Society of BC's conservation fundraiser auction. A year later, we were welcomed by the Bosveld Jacobs Safari team on the other side of the world. Travelling away from home to hunt has been a foreign concept for me. Hunting in a place without connection to the place, the people, and the animals raises many questions about how this can fit together and align with our hunting ethic. Miki and I spent the months leading up and the days on the hunt processing these questions. And now we have answers! We are excited to share what we learned from the mind-blowing experiences of this Adventure. While on the hunt, I interviewed Drian Laas, the professional hunter who guides and facilitates the hunting experience. I caught up with Riaan Jacobs, owner of the Boshveld Jocobs Safaris, who donated the hunt to the fundraiser at this year's Wild Sheep Society of BC fundraiser in Penticton. I hope you enjoy this podcast as we dive into the complexities of hunting in a foreign country, touching on the ethics of sport versus sustenance, strategies used in guided hunts, and the emotional highs and lows that come with the experience. I am excited about returning to Africa and will plan a trip in the next few years. I will be organizing a trip for folks who are part of the EatWild community. If you are curious about Africa or may want to join our Adventure, please reach out! If you listen to this podcast ahead of April 7th, there is still time for you to join Spike Camp and enter for a chance to win a trip to Africa. I want to thank Bosveld Jacobs Safaris for the generous donations to help fund wild sheep conservation in BC, and for taking such good care of Miki and me and truly facilitating a trip of a lifetime.

A Sermon for the First Sunday in Lent St. Matthew 4:1-11 by William Klock Our Gospel today from Matthew picks up right after Jesus' baptism by John. Matthew tells us: Then Jesus was led out into the wilderness by the Spirit to be tested by the devil. Picture the desert. It was hot and dry and dusty as Jesus made his way from that fertile strip of land along the Jordan up into the Judean wilderness, into the place that the Old Testament calls Yeshiymon. It means “devastation”. It's a land of sand and broken limestone and shingle. Ridges of stratified rock twist here and turn there and everything in between them is filled with dust, jagged rocks, and broken stone shingles that can easily slide out from under foot. Into that hot and desolate wilderness Jesus walked at the Spirit's prompting. I expect that when he first set out he found beauty in the desert. I know from experience: There's a lot of beauty in the desert when you first start out. Look at that formation over there. Look at those colours. Look at the amazing sunset. And then the clear night sky and the stars. But eventually the heat gets to you. Last summer Veronica and I rode the KVR from Penticton to Oliver and back. On the way out we were admiring the lake and the wildflowers and the wonderful smells all around. But it was over 100° that day and even after a stop for ice cream, the ride back to Penticton became a real slog. We just wanted to get back and out of the heat. We've had similar days on foot hiking down in the Anza-Borrego Desert. Everything's a wonder on the way out, but by the time you're on the way back, it's hot and your sweaty and your exhausted. Your feet hurt from walking over rocks, and you're tired and hungry and you just want to get back to the car. I expect Jesus felt something like that the further he walked into that wilderness of devastation. But as he put one foot in front of another, as he wiped the sweat from his face, he thought about his forefathers and their wilderness trek from the Red Sea to the promised land. The Lord, the God of Israel, was about to do something very much like that again. A new exodus. And Jesus was at the centre of it. Why did Jesus do this? Why did he put himself in such a harsh and difficult space. Why did he starve himself? He did it to put himself in the place of his people who so badly needed and who so longed for deliverance. Even if no one saw him in the wilderness, he was acting out a prophecy, repeating the life and story of his people and putting himself in their place. Eventually Jesus found a spot in the middle of that wasteland, maybe with a little spring of water in the shade of one of those twisting ridges, maybe with a few bushes or even a palm tree for a bit of shade. He arranged some rocks and scrub to make a (somewhat) comfortable place to sit or lie or to kneel in prayer. And he communed with God, meditated on the scriptures, pondered the nature of his ministry which was just beginning, and prayed for wisdom to follow the path his Father had set before him. And, I expect most of all, he prayed for the strength and grace to follow that path to its end. He was preparing to take the role of Israel up himself, to be and to embody the people of God. Where they had failed to be what the Lord had called them to be, Jesus would be faithful. For years he had meditated on his own miraculous birth, he'd heard how people like Simeon and Anna, even is own mother, had seen in him the fulfilment of the Lord's promises. He meditated on the Scriptures and there he found his messianic calling and worked out what he was to do and even how it would end—and how that end would really be the beginning. And if there was any doubt in his mind, it was driven away in his baptism. Even though he had no need of repentance, he identified himself with his people as he waded into the Jordan to be baptised by John, and when he came up out of the river heaven had opened, the Spirit had descended upon him, and the Lord had spoken, “You are my beloved Son.” That confirmed everything. “My beloved son”: that was Israel's title, given by the Lord in the exodus. It's what he'd called his people when he demanded that Pharoah let them go. It's what he called them later after they'd crossed the Red Sea and arrived at Mount Sinai. Israel was the Lord's beloved son. So, now, like Moses, Jesus seeks the solitude of the wilderness for forty days and nights, waiting for the Lord to speak again to his son. But instead, the devil comes to him. I doubt Jesus was surprised by this. After all, if Israel was tempted in the wilderness, he had to be tempted in the wilderness too. Matthew writes: He fasted for forty days and forty nights, and at the end of it he was famished. Then the tempter approached him. “If you really are God's son,” he said, “command these stones to become bread.” (St. Matthew 4:2-3) Again, Jesus is prophetically reenacting the story of his people, so this is what we should expect would happen. They were tempted in the wilderness and so is he. The devil leverages his hunger. “The Lord has declared you to be his Son. If you believe that's who you really are, satisfy yourself and turn these stones into bread.” No doubt, Jesus had spent much of those forty days and nights contemplating what it meant to be the Son of God—and probably also pondering why the Spirit wanted the Son of God to be so hungry. But Jesus was obedient. To embody his people and to follow in their footsteps, being faithful at every step where they had failed, that was the Lord's plan for him. That was how he would redeem his people. The devil's temptation here is subtle. He doesn't tempt Jesus to disobey the Spirit overtly by leaving the desert. He tempts Jesus to turn the rocks into bread—in other words, he tempts him to remake the wilderness itself. There was that one rock—over there—that looked just like a loaf of bread. Jesus had been eyeing it for days in his hunger. Just turn it into real bread. But Jesus knew that the Spirit had brought him to the wilderness for a reason and to undermine that, however it was done, was to be unfaithful, to be disobedient. It was to reject his Father's plan. So he rebukes the devil with the words of Deuteronomy 8:3. Jesus answered, “It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.'” Jesus reminds the devil of the sermon that Moses preached to the Israelites as they were preparing to march into Canaan. Moses said: Remember how the Lord your God led you through the wilderness for these forty years, humbling you and testing you to prove your character, and to find out whether or not you would obey his commands. Yes, he humbled you by letting you go hungry and then feeding you with manna, a food previously unknown to you and your ancestors. He did it to teach you that people do not live by bread alone; rather, we live by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. (Deuteronomy 8:2-3) There was a reason why the Lord allowed the Israelites to be hungry: it demonstrated their faith in his provision. Were they willing to trust him even when it meant hardship? The Lord taught them that there's more to life than bread. What good is living today if you miss out on the life of the age to come? Remember that the Israelites had failed that test, grumbling against Moses and wanting to go back to the fleshpots of Egypt. But now, where Israel failed, Jesus passes the test. He trusts his Father to provide where he has led and shows that he knows that obedience to God's call is more important than physical comforts and even life itself. If he can't endure fasting, how will he endure the cross? And Brothers and Sisters, if we can't endure fasting, how can we expect to live sacrificially as Jesus calls us to live, giving up everything that is not him in faith as we look forward ourselves to the age to come? Back to Matthew: The devil tries a second time, taking a different tack. Verses 5-6: Then the devil took him to the holy city and stood him on the pinnacle of the temple. “If you really are the God's son,” he said, “throw yourself down. It is written, “‘He will command his angels concerning you,' and “‘On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.'” (Matthew 4:5-6) Now the devil tempts him to jump from the highest point in Jerusalem, to force God's hand. Angels would deliver him and all of Israel would recognise him as Messiah. What a temptation this must have been. During those forty days of fasting and prayer, Jesus contemplated that rejection was going to be a significant factor in his ministry. A few would follow, but Jesus would largely be rejected by Israel—and eventually that rejection would culminate in his death. But what if he could prove to all of Israel that he really was the Messiah? What if he could side-step the rejection and go straight to the throne? This was his chance. But Jesus knew that this was not his Father's plan. If he became King that way, he'd be no better than David. There would be no means of redemption for his people. There would be no Spirit poured out on them to renew their hearts. He would be King, but the Lord's promises to Abraham, to Moses, to the Prophets would go unfulfilled. Without the cross, Jesus might put Israel's earthly enemies under his feet, but they would still be slaves to sin and death. And without the cross, the nations would know that Israel had a king who worked miracles, but that would never be enough to draw the gentiles to Israel's God in awe. No, the gentiles and their nations were to be drawn to the God of Israel as they saw his faithfulness manifest in the death and resurrection of Jesus. The devil throws two bits of Psalm 91 at Jesus. It's a psalm about the Lord's protection. It sounds good, but it's not the whole psalm. Other parts of the psalm qualify God's provision for his people. The first two verses read: He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” The shelter of the Most High is a wonderful place to find yourself, but to live under his protection requires that we first abide in his shadow. He is our “refuge and fortress”, but we put ourselves in his care as we trust in him. In verse 14 the Lord says, Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. The devil loves to plucked portions of Scripture out of context in order to twist their meaning, reminding us of God's promises of blessing and care, while neglecting to remind us of the need for faith, for holiness, and for obedience. God's people show their love for him through obedience. Jesus later said, “If you love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15). The same goes for Jesus' relationship with his Father. The Lord's blessings would come only as Jesus walked in faithful obedience. So Jesus rebukes the devil with the words of Deuteronomy 6:16. Jesus said to him, “Again it is written, ‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.'” Where Israel had failed, Jesus is again obedient. Israel had tested the Lord. Jesus, instead, expresses his trust in the Lord's plan, knowing that only through his rejection would the Lord's promises be fulfilled. Now, the devil makes one last attempt at dragging Jesus away from the path to the cross. Look at verses 8 and 9: The devil took him off again to a very high mountain. There he showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to him, “I will give the whole lot to you, if you will fall down and worship me.” Israel, too, was tempted to idolatry in the wilderness and failed—and failed and failed and failed throughout her history. Jesus is tempted just as his people were. “All the kingdoms of the world will be yours,” the devil says, “just submit to me.” Jesus and the devil both knew that if the Lord's promises through the prophets were true, Jesus' lordship would extend beyond Israel to all of Creation. Gabriel had announced to Mary: “He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end” (Luke 1:33). When the Father had spoken at Jesus' baptism, he had spoken words from Psalm 2 where we also read of the great King: Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage, and the ends of the earth your possessions. (Psalm 2:8) The devil again offers Jesus a shortcut to his throne—a shortcut that would bypass the heart of his messianic ministry. Again, Jesus knew that what would bring the nations to his throne was the redemption of Israel through his death and resurrection and the display of the Spirit's power in the hearts of his people. In these events the nations would see the greatness and the faithfulness of the God of Israel and they would be drawn to give him glory and to submit themselves in faith to the Lord Jesus. That was to be God's means of welcoming the gentiles into his presence and into his kingdom. And yet, if Jesus followed the devil's shortcut, there would be no kingdom—at least not the sort of eternal kingdom in which all was set to rights, in which God himself was king, the sort of kingdom that Israel had always looked forward to as the “age to come”. No, the Lord had charged his people in the wilderness, saying: Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might…. It is the Lord your God you shall fear. Him you shall serve and by his name you shall swear. You shall not go after other gods, the gods of the peoples who are around you—for the Lord your God in your midst is a jealous God. (Deuteronomy 4-5, 13-15a) Israel had failed. Even in the wilderness, while Moses was on the mountain receiving the Ten Commandments, Aaron had led the people as they made and worshiped a golden calf. Most of Israel's history was marked by the worship of foreign gods. But Jesus responds to the devil's temptation with the command God had given through Moses: “Be gone, Satan! For it is written, “‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him alone.'” (Matthew 4:10) Where Israel failed, Jesus is faithful. He chooses the hard path of obedience that will bring not only kingship, but also redemption. Jesus was destined not only to be King of the Jews, but Lord of all Creation and conqueror of sin and death. For that to happen, evil had to be concentrated all in one place, to rise up to its full height, to do its worst to Jesus, the Son of God, the Messiah—so that God could raise him from death, overturn the false verdict the people had announced, and vindicate his Son. Jesus knew that to restore the life of God to his people, the way to inaugurate the age to come in which all would be set to rights, he must first let evil do its worst—he had to walk the path of rejection, suffering, and death. By his faithfulness, Jesus redeemed those in Israel who were faithful to him. By his faithfulness, Jesus created a new people of God in whom God poured out his Spirit. By his faithfulness, Jesus was declared Lord with power and authority. And because of his faithfulness, the nations have seen the faithfulness of Israel's God and now give him glory as they—as we—submit ourselves to him in faith. And now we, you and I, walk—or, at least, we should be walking, in faithfulness to the glory of God. As Lent puts before us the suffering of Jesus and reminds us that God's life for us came through his submission to death, it reminds us that we, too, must die to self and walk the narrow path, the way that leads to suffering and rejection, in order to know the life of God and the age to come. We take our first steps down that narrow path as we repent and turn aside from everything that is not Jesus, as stop grasping everything that is not Jesus, and then take hold of him with both hands in faith, trusting in him for the forgiveness of sins, for the life of the Spirit, and for the hope of God's world set to rights. Lent calls us to set aside our distractions and our idols so that we might fix our gaze on Jesus, taking up our crosses and following him. St. Paul warned the Corinthians in our Epistle “not to receive the grace of God in vain”. What a splash of cold water that must have been. They thought they were doing so well, but Paul rebukes them for tolerating sins that horrified even the pagans; for abusing spiritual gifts, using them selfishly rather than to edify the church; for allowing the values of pagan culture to twist their understanding of the gospel; for abusing the Lord's Supper—the list is long and troubling. Brothers and Sisters, fast and pray these next forty days that the gospel might permeate ever deeper into our hearts and minds, and let us submit ourselves to the renewing and regenerating work of the Spirit. Let us not receive the gospel in vain. Instead, may we each day die to self that we might emerge the other side of death into the life of God and know his glory. Let's pray: Lord Jesus Christ, for our sake you fasted forty days and forty nights: give us grace so to discipline ourselves that our flesh being subdued to the Spirit, we may always obey your will in righteousness and true holiness, to the honour and glory of your name; for you live and reign with the Father and Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

A Sermon for the Second Sunday after Christmas St. Matthew 2:13-23 by William Klock For us, a week has passed since we heard Matthew's account of Jesus' birth in Bethlehem and the visit by the shepherds. But as we come to today's Gospel, roughly two years have passed in the story of Jesus, Joseph, and Mary. For now, we'll skip over Matthew's account of the visit of the wisemen. (That's for this coming week as we celebrate the Epiphany.) So today we pick up the story at Matthew 2:13, Matthew tells us that after the wisemen had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” said the angel, “and take the child and his mother and hurry off to Egypt.” I can only imagine what Joseph was thinking. This is the second time an angel has come to him to tell him what to do. Remember from last Sunday's Gospel, Jospeh was thinking through how best to extricate himself from his upcoming marriage to Mary after he found out she was already pregnant. The angel came to him in a dream. “Don't be afraid!” The famous first words of every angel. “Don't be afraid. Mary didn't cheat on you. She's pregnant by the Holy Spirit and she's going to have a son and you need to name him ‘Jesus'—which means 'Yahweh saves'—because he will save his people from their sins.” So it's not like Joseph didn't know there was something special about Jesus. Ditto for Mary. Matthew tells the story from Joseph's perspective. Luke tells it from Mary's. Luke tells us about the visit she had from the angel and how the angel told her—also—to name the baby “Jesus”. Why? “Because he will be called the son of the Most High. The Lord,” the angel said to her, “will give him the throne of David his father, and he shall reign over the house of Jacob forever. His kingdom will never come to an end.” That was all familiar messianic language to Mary. There's that song that popular Christmas song that asks over and over, “Mary did you know?” Yes. She did. She even composed a song about it that she shared with her cousin Elizabeth—who, you remember—was pregnant with John, who would prepare the way for Jesus. Mary knew what her baby meant. Think of the words she sang out in praise: My soul doth magnify the Lord… He hath shewed strength with his arm, he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. He hath put down the might from their seat, and hath exalted the humble and meek. He hath filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he hath send empty away. He remembering his mercy hath holpen his servant Israel, as he promised to our forefathers, Abraham and his seed, for ever. That night that Jesus was born in Bethlehem, Mary and Joseph both knew with absolute certainty that in him the God of Israel was about to act and that the world would never be the sme. And not that he was about to act in some unforeseen way that exploded into history totally unexpectedly. No. This was the fulfilment of prophecy. This was the fulfilment of the Lord's promises to his people. The fact that shepherds came, having been told by angels; the fact that wisemen came, having been guided by a star—these were no mysteries to Mary and Joseph. They knew from the beginning who Jesus was. I'm sure they had lots of other questions: Why us? How is this going to work? But they knew from the beginning that this child would one day cast down the powers, the gods, the kings of the present evil age and set their world to rights. That's what Mary's song is all about. So they knew that Mary's baby was a challenge to everything and everyone that stood in the way of God's new age. As much as scripture gives us every reason to think that they trusted the Lord, I have to think that if they're anything like us, they still had their worries. At the top of the list had to be King Herod. And so, I suspect, Mary and Joseph probably didn't go around town announcing any of this. Surely word got around at least a bit. There were, of course, the shepherds. But I expect Mary and Jospeh kept what the angel had told them on the low down as much as they were able. And then the magi—the wisemen from far away—no one could mistake them riding into town with their camels. And to hear that they'd been to see Herod, to ask about the new-born King of the Jews. That was not good news. Not at all. Because now Herod knew about Jesus and Herod was what people today might call a “psycho”. Herod was an Idumean—today we'd call him an “Arab”. His ancestors had been absorbed into Judaea, were circumcised and converted to Judaism—at least nominally. Most people saw Herod as a pretender. His decadent lifestyle was out of step with Judaism, but most of all, people hated him for the way he cozied up to the Romans and betrayed his people. He had no right to call himself King of the Jews. The Roman Senate had given him that title. He was no descendant of David. And all this made Herod more than a little insecure. Deep down he knew he had no right to Israel's throne and it made him paranoid. He murdered his own family members—even his wife—because he thought they were scheming against him. Just before he died, he ordered the leading citizens of Jericho to be killed so that the people would be weeping as his funeral procession passed through the city. So Joseph and Mary had to be worried to hear that Herod had been told about this young “King of the Jews” in Bethlehem. If Herod would murder his own family at a hint of sedition, what would he do to a new-born rival? I expect Jospeh was already trying to think through their best course of action. And then the angel came and said, “Get up and take the child and his mother and hurry off to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you. Herod is going to hunt for the child to kill him.” Matthew says that Joseph wasted no time: “He got up and took the child and his mother by night, and went off to Egypt. He stayed there until the death of Herod.” And then Matthew adds a quote—just as we saw him do in Chapter One, last week, with that quote from the Prophet Isaiah about the virgin conceiving and bearing a son whose name means “God with us”. Matthew does it again. He does this all through is Gospel, but we have to know our Jewish scriptures to know who he's quoting. In this case it's Hosea 11:1. Matthew's Jewish audience would have recognised it instantly and it's an indictment against our poor knowledge of the Bible that we need a footnote in our Bibles to tell us. Anyway, Matthew writes, “This happened to fulfil what the Lord said through the prophet, ‘Out of Egypt I called my son.'” We'll come back to this in a bit. Matthew then continues with the story. You'll remember that instead of reporting back to Herod about the child as he'd asked them to do, the wisemen—because of their own visit from the angel—they bypassed Herod on their way home. So Matthew tells us that when Herod realised that he'd been tricked by the wisemen, he flew into a towering rage. He dispatched men and killed all the boys in Bethlehem and in all its surrounding districts, from two years old and under, according to the time the wisemen had told him.” And then another quote from the Prophets, this time from Jeremiah 31:15: “That was when the word that came through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled: There was heard a voice in Rama, crying and loud lamentation. Rachel is weeping for her children, and will not let anyone comfort her, because they are no more.” And then another visit by an angel. Matthew writes in verse 19: “After the death of Herod, suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt. ‘Get up,' he said, ‘and take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel. Those who wanted to kill the child are dead.' So he got up, took the child and his mother, and went to the land of Israel. But when he heard that Archelaus was ruling Judaea instead of his father Herod, he was afraid to go back there. After being advised in a dream'—again—he went off to the region of Galilee. When he got there, he settled in a town called Nazareth. This was to fulfil what the prophet had spoken: ‘He shall be called a Nazarene.'” Again, we sort of have this idyllic scene of Christmas in our heads: Jesus in a manger. No crying he makes, of course. The shepherds kneel adoringly. Mary and Joseph sit there peacefully with their halos glowing. Even the animals stifle all their natural noises and gather around to adore the baby. “Silent night…all is calm…sleep in heavenly peace,” loops in our heads. But when you read the actual story as Matthew tells it things aren't nearly so peaceful. Matthew tells us of the birth of Jesus at a time and a place of trouble, of violence, and of fear. Jesus was born in a world of darkness, into a world controlled by powers and gods and kings who stood opposed to him. Before he had learned to walk or to talk, the wrath of a psychotic king forced his family to flee to Egypt. The shadow of the cross lies dead across the Christmas story. And yet all this is in keeping with what Matthew told us last week. If Jesus is the fulfilment of Isaiah's prophecy of Immanuel—of God with us—we'd expect this. God's people longed for his presence, they longed for his deliverance, because the world was not as they knew it should be. And so God came to them in the midst of the darkness, the brokenness, the evil, the pain—the violence and injustice—the sin and death. God entered the world of a king who would murder dozens of innocent children just to keep his investment in the present evil age secure. Think about the fact that on the three days after Christmas Day the Church commemorates St. Stephen, St. John, and the Holy Innocents. John was exiled to the island of Patmos for preaching the good news about Jesus. Stephen—the first martyr—was stoned to death outside Jerusalem for preaching to the people that Jesus was the fulfilment of Israel's story. And the Holy Innocents—the collateral damage of the first attempt on Jesus' life. It's a reminder that, yes, the light has come into the darkness, but that there are those who love the dark and there are those invested in it. Brothers and Sisters, as much as the light has shined in the darkness and as much as the darkness has not overcome it—as St. John writes in the opening of his Gospel—the darkness still remains and the darkness still fights back. Herod's murder of the innocents of Bethlehem—probably a few dozen baby boys—pales in comparison to the millions of unborn children murdered in modern times in our once Christian nations. The wars and violence of Herod's or of Caesar's day pale in comparison to the wars and violence of the last century—all too often perpetrated by supposedly Christian nations, kings, presidents, and prime ministers. We see the light around us too often subverted by the darkness. First by Modernists and now by Postmodernists, the gospel virtues that once transformed the West are plucked from the gospel tree, left to go feral, and fed back to our culture, twisted and abused—darkness masquerading as light. It's easy to get discouraged, isn't it. Last year I read historian Tom Holland's book Dominion. It's about how Christianity transformed the West. The Gospel came into a world of Herods and Caesars and taught us things like mercy and grace that hadn't been known before. It transformed sexual ethics. It gave status to women and children and to the poor. It ended slavery. And now you look at the world around us and everythings reverting back into the darkness. Large segments of the church have or are selling out. I look at the alumni page for my seminary on Facebook and it seems everyone is “deconstructing”—and it always ends the same way—with denying the exclusivity of Jesus and an embracing of Postmodernism and the twisted sexual ethics of our post-Christian culture. I've listened to local pastors who spend their time apologising for the Bible, blurring the lines it makes clear, and walking their people through deconstructing their faith. Others have sold out to the materialism of our secular culture and are preaching a crossless gospel of health and wealth. The gospel—the real gospel—is the answer, but it seems like it falls on deaf ears these days and that the people lost in today's darkness have become resistant to it. It's easy to lose hope. But Brothers and Sisters, that's when I think of Matthew as he drops his quotes from the Prophets through his telling of the good news. Remember that I said last week that Matthew saw God's promises down through the ages as lights in the darkness. Last summer Veronica I did some railgrade riding on our bikes. We rode through some tunnels—some of them long and windy enough that there was no light at the end—at least not at first—and so there were small lights at intervals, guiding the way, until you finally came around that final corner and daylight blazed into the tunnel. I didn't appreciate those lights until I rode through the Adra Tunnel in the mountains between Kelowna and Penticton. It's one of the longest rail tunnels in BC and it's been closed since the 80s. Volunteers have spent the last few years making repairs and it's just about ready to be reopened. At present the trail bypasses it and there are fences across the old railgrade to keep people out of the tunnel. But when I got there, the fences were off to the side. I took the turn and pretty soon found myself inside the tunnel. It goes through something like a 270° turn and pretty soon I was in pitch dark, riding slowly, cold water dripping on me. There are no little lights to light the way. And I almost ran—smack!—into a grader that was parked in the dark. I could just as easily have run off the grade and into a ditch or a wall. Like the lights in those tunnels, God's promises led his people through the darkness—around the corners, keeping them out of the ditch, keeping them from running—smack!—into obstacles sitting in the darkness—so that he could lead them out into the light. At the time those little lights seemed like really big deals—those little lights like Passover and the Exodus, like the torah and the tabernacle, like King David and like the return from Exile. They gave the people some bearings. The lights gave them hope. But what many didn't realise at the time was that those lights were leading the people—preparing them—to understand how God works, to understand that he is faithful, so that when they finally came out into the bright light of Jesus, into the bright light of the gospel—they'd understand that this is where the story had been taking them all along. This is what Matthew's up to all through his Gospel. Like we saw last Sunday with that bit of Isaiah and the baby, Immanuel, who served as the sign to accompany the Lord's promise to deliver his people from Israel and Syria. And here, Matthew quotes Hosea 11:1, “Out of Egypt I called my son.” At first it looks like Matthew is ignoring what that passage means in Hosea. It's not looking forward. It's looking back. Israel was the Lord's son whom he had called out of Egypt. That meant—at the time, back in the dark days of Hosea—that the Lord would not abandon the people: Israel was his beloved son and he'd gone to great lengths to deliver Israel from Egypt. And Matthew saw that little light back there in the darkness of Hosea's day and it led him towards the light that had come in Jesus. Jesus brings Israel's story to completion. He's not just “God's son” in the sense that he's divine. He's “God's son” in the sense that he is the embodiment of Israel. Remember what I've said before: the King represents his people. And so Jesus came to represent his people, to finally accomplish what they'd failed at all those centuries, and then to die on their behalf the death that they deserved. Matthew does something similar with the prophecy spoken by Jeremiah. He holds up Rachel weeping for her children as a backdrop to Herod's murder of the baby boys of Bethlehem. But when Jeremiah spoke those words, he was drawing on the imagery of Rachel to describe the pain of Israel's exile to Babylon and to proclaim the hope of God's promise to renew his covenant and to restore his people—to bring Israel back from her long exile. The long darkness is full of weeping and mourning, but at the end is the Lord's deliverance. And then that bit of Isaiah 11 that Matthew quotes about Jesus being a Nazarene. Isaiah uses the Hebrew word nazir. It means “branch” and through Isaiah the Lord promises that he will be faithful to the promises he'd made to David and his descendants. A branch will grow out of the stump of Jesse. It's about a new beginning for the royal line of David. Matthew hinted at this already in Joseph's genealogy. The fact that the Old Testament nowhere mentions Nazareth, the fact that the Isaiah passage about the branch has nothing to do with Nazareth, that's okay. Matthew knew that the lights along the tunnel—even if it doesn't look like it—they all lead to the same place. Everything in Israel's story was leading to Jesus and so he takes Isaiah's prophecy of the nazir, the branch, and ties it to Jesus' hometown of Nazareth. Matthew's sort of saying that we know Jesus is the promised branch because he came from “Branchville”. Maybe it's a more “creative” way of using the Old Testament than we're comfortable with, but for Matthew it worked—again—because he knew that everything God said and everything God did—the whole story of the God of Israel and his people—was leading them through the darkness to Jesus and to the light of this new age, this new world, this new creation. And Brothers and Sisters, that's why as much as it's tempting to lose hope as we look at the surrounding darkness and even as the darkness creeps in and takes ground that was once won by the gospel, I don't lose hope. Because the scriptures assure me of the faithfulness of God to his promises. Because I know he has, in the birth, in the death, in the resurrection of Jesus done the hard part already. Because he has poured out his Spirit. And as surely as he called Abraham and his family and led them through the darkness—through slavery and through exile and everything in between—and then brought them finally out into the blazing glory of Jesus and the gospel, I know that God, who has established his church and has equipped us with his own Spirit to proclaim the good news—to carry his light into the darkness—will not fail to bring us eventually to that day when his glory covers the earth as the waters cover the sea, when every last enemy has been put under his feet, even death itself, when every tear is wiped away, and everything is once-and-for-all set to rights. Matthew saw God's promises fulfilled all through the story—even at its darkest. As Jesus was arrested in Gethsemane he said, himself, “All this has taken place that the writings of the prophets might be fulfilled.” God is sovereign and God is faithful, Brothers and Sisters. Even as the darkness mustered its forces and rose to its full height to deal a death blow to Jesus, it was doing so as part of a plan orchestrated by the Lord. Darkness, unwittingly, concentrating itself all in one place so that, through Jesus, it could be defeated when he rose, triumphant over sin and death. And that is why I remain full of hope. God's faithfulness to his promises did not end in the First Century. He remains faithful today. If we will only walk with him in faith, his light—his gospel promises, his Spirit indwelling us—will lead us through today's darkness. Let's pray: Almighty God, you have poured upon us the new light of your incarnate Word: Grant that this light, enkindled in our hearts, may shine forth in our lives; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

It's Monday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of the Real Life Podcast is back, edited, and ready to help you start your week. This week, the guys looked back at NFL Sunday, ahead at the Grey Cup, and wondered how The boys kicked off the Monday episode of Real Life with a conversation about this past weekend in the NFL after Baggedmilk rolled into the studio wearing a new Vikings jersey and hat. Despite the chirps about the outfit, BM was looking fresh, and no one could handle the sizzle. Talking about the Vikings led the guys to talk about some of the best sports line nicknames that they can remember from over the years.Changing gears, the guys talked about the Young Stars Tournament that happened in Penticton this past weekend and how the Oilers' rookies have struggled immensely against the Canucks and Flames. If you haven't been paying attention, Edmonton has fared poorly against its peers at the tournament, and some people are concerned about the future of the depth chart. Sticking with the Oilers, the guys spent some time on what they think the concession prices will be when the new NHL season starts. If beers were $16.50 during the playoffs, is it reasonable to expect the price to go up to $18 or more? As a result, Baggedmilk asked folks to send us a note about what everyone thinks is the most egregious price increase on concession items. Finally, the boys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a random collection of topics that were all over the map. From betting on the Elks to win the Grey Cup to Commonwealth Stadium upgrades to whether or not the podcast should pivot to being a CFL show, the final segment from the Monday epi

Rarely do we look at training for endurance or being an endurance athlete here. Today is different. This isn't a suggestion nor a recommendation. But it is a glass ceiling lift. Whatever you think is possible, is possible. There are few 78-year-olds training for 4-5 hours on a bike or spending hours a week in the pool and on their zero gravity treadmill... preparing for one of the most daunting events in triathlon. But today's guest is. My returning guest is a 78-year-old endurance athlete and she's here to share her next goal. If you walk away with one thing, I hope it is that it's never too late, you're not too old. And if you find yourself thinking, she shouldn't, you reconsider and do a self check about your own fear level instead. My Guest: Dexter Yeats, age 78, but identified as 79 for Racing, as it is My Last Year in the Female 74-79 Age Group! In the late 1970s, she began participating in triathlons. In her first race, she finished as the third female overall but was also dead last. There were few female racers back then, and no awards for women, so they received single red roses from a local grocery store. Her first Ironman was in Penticton, Canada, in 1993, where she won her age group (45-49) and qualified for KONA, finishing 10th in her age group. Life's demands limited her swimming and cycling, drawing her to Ultra Running. She ran a dozen 50-mile trail runs and attempted a few 100-mile runs, but her career as a Teamster truck driver restricted her training time, leading to some years without racing. After retiring in 2010, she moved near Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, and resumed racing at 66. She has since completed 15 more full Ironman races, totaling 16, with 10 age group wins and 5 Kona finishes. Despite a few DNFs, she remains undeterred. She has also competed in Ironman 70.3 races, qualifying for the World Championships in Australia, South Africa, and France. In 2018, she won as The World Champion in her age group (70-74) in South Africa. ASEA sponsors her, providing 'Fountain of Youth' products that help her stay healthy, recover and keep going. Questions we answer in this episode: ● How long have you been racing? 00:08:30 ● Any plans to hang it up? 00:09:30 ● What kind of goals do you have? 00:015:40 ● Are you training by the numbers and testing or what does that look like ?00:08:20 ● Do you get resistance from people who think this is too much or wonder if you should be doing this? 19:00 Thoughts about endurance training or being an endurance athlete in latter decades? Inspired? Or what are your reactions? Share them with us!
