Host: Robert Hatfield  |  Released Thursday, October 14, 2021 Most preachers and ministers wear multiple hats.

On this Nineteenth Sunday after Pentecost, The Rev. Beth Hall, Assistant to the Rector of St George Episcopal Church, discusses the Gospel reading for the day. She states that this passage often has been used to keep people in abusive, loveless relationships. However, Jesus wants the best in life for each of us. She states that we must claim the gift of God's love like a little child would. As we open ourselves to Christ's gift, we will know the kind of love where we feel safe, secure, nourished and healed.

The New England Patriots are about four turnovers away from being 4-0 this year, and yet they're 1-3. The problem is that they've dug themselves into a huge hole to start the year, but at least they know what they have to do to fix it (protect the ball!). Fortunately, with the Houston Texans hosting the Patriots in week 5, New England should be in prime position to have a rebound game. The Texans offense boasts old friend Brandin Cooks and not much else, while the defense has been abysmal. So what's the Patriots' blueprint to win? Alec and Rich cover it all.

Bill Belichick giveth and Bill Belichick taketh away. In a masterclass of defensive scheming against Tom Brady and his trio of All Pro receivers, Belichick put the defense in the best possible position to succeed. Only for Belichick to flub away the game on the offensive side of the ball with cowardly decisions to punt on 4th and 2 before the half and to kick the near-impossible field goal at the end of the game instead of putting the ball in the hand of his rookie quarterback that was dealing all game. What can we learn from this game? A lot. Alec and Rich break it all down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Convention Pulpit Teen Edition Episode 11: Rev. Jonathan Slagenweit

In this homily on the Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost, The Rev. Ed Bartle, Associate Rector of St. George Episcopal Church, discusses the readings of the day and their importance to Christian life. He points out that if we are not careful, we can develop an attitude of privilege or feeling that we have an advantage over others and that this can be a stumbling block to our Christian life. Jesus taught that we must learn to become more welcoming, hospitable, and loving. There is more than one way to God. We are called to be apostles – to spread the Kingdom of God and to recognize each other's right to his or her belief and to ultimately seek the greatest compliment –“well done my good and faithful servant.” Send comments to musingsonfaith@gmail.com or leave a voice message at: https://anchor.fm/st-george-episcopal-ch/message. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/st-george-episcopal-ch/message

Pastor Chris Witt discusses why he preaches against communism from the pulpit. 

The Patriots had a pretty simple set of objectives against the Saints. Protect the ball. Stop Alvin Kamara Do those two things and the Patriots should have been able to win handily. Unfortunately, Kamara picked up over 100 yards and a score, Mac Jones threw three interceptions, Jake Bailey had a punt blocked, and all the bounces went the Saints way in blowout fashion.

The New England Patriots are hoping to put together the first win streak of Mac Jones' career as they host the New Orleans Saints, and the Saints look ripe for demolition. There is no strong wide receiver on the roster with Michael Thomas on the reserves, and that means the entire offense is star running back Alvin Kamara. So what should be the Patriots' defensive game plan? And how can Jones, Josh McDaniels, and the offense draw up a game plan against a Saints defense that is dealing with a lot of injuries?

On this Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost, The Rev. Ed Bartle, Associate Rector of St. George Episcopal Church, discusses the Gospel reading of the day in which Jesus' disciples are discussing amongst themselves which one of them is the greatest. Jesus explains to them that if anyone wants the greatness of the Kingdom, he must be last of all, that he must serve and do things for others. Jesus warns us of cultivating friendships with those who can do things for us; it is the society of persons who needs things that we must seek.

Scott and Gage discuss whether churches should wade into political positions.Vaccines, healthcare, foreign policy, taxes,…

There is not a lot of star power on this New York Jets roster. One might say that makes them an easy target for the New England Patriots. One might also say that makes the Jets dangerous because they have nothing to lose. The Patriots are coming off a disappointing, yet inspiring loss to the Dolphins in Week 1, while the Jets looked hapless against the Panthers. The Jets lost their starting left tackle, their punter, their waterboy, and probably a few other thing along the way, and the Patriots are primed to take advantage. So how can the Patriots offense, led by Mac Jones, beat a Jets defense that's best unit is its defensive line? And how can the New England defense stop a Jets offense that only boasts one marquee player? Alec and Rich cover it all. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this homily on the Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost, The Rev. Nancy Bryson, Deacon at St. George Episcopal Church, expounds on the Gospel for the day which begins with Jesus asking, “Who do people say that I am?” Jesus made it clear to his followers that to follow Him meant making a choice to pick up the burdens and pain of others even when you don't have to. Deacon Nancy cites the actions of First Responders on September 11, 2001, as an example of taking up Jesus' cross. She states that it is important that each of us come to our own profession of faith which defines our relationship to Jesus and Jesus' relationship to us.

Al and Dan discuss meetings from both prospectives from the side of the church as well as the side of the speacial speaker and offer some advice from what they have gathered over the past 40 years.

The New England Patriots running backs were both responsible for keeping the Patriots in the game and for giving it away. While Damien Harris had a strong showing, his late fumble cost the Patriots a chance to win, while Rhamondre Stevenson's fumble led to his benching for the foreseeable future. According to Expected Points modeling, those fumbles combined to take an expected 8 points off the board, with the reversal of either play likely allowing the Patriots to win the game. That's brutal. And even with that, the future is bright. Mac Jones looked excellent, as did Nelson Agholor, Jonnu Smith, and Hunter Henry. The defense did a great job against a talented Dolphins offense, and they'll only get better as Dont'a Hightower shakes off the rust and Stephon Gilmore returns to the lineup. So, yes, the Patriots lost in week 1, but they're looking like they'll be able to compete for the whole season. Alec and Rich break it all down. Learn more about your ad choices.

The New England Patriots are embarking on a new season and they will be facing a host of familiar faces with the Miami Dolphins. Led by head coach, and former Patriots defensive mind, Brian Flores, the Dolphins are stacked with former Patriots- from Adam Butler to Elandon Robert to Jason McCourty, which means they'll be ready for the Patriots. Will the Patriots be ready for the Dolphins? Mac Jones will lead a host of new faces in the Patriots' passing attack against one of the best secondaries in the entire league in a clear mismatch, but will Damien Harris and the New England rushing attack be able to take over the game on the ground against a weaker Dolphins defensive front? And can the Patriots secondary handle the Dolphins talent at receiver long enough for the pass rush to disrupt Tua Tagavailoa and the Miami passing attack? Alec and Rich break it all down.

In this homily on the Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost, The Rev. Janet Richardson, Assistant to the Rector of St. George Episcopal Church, discusses the gospel reading in which the Gentile woman asks Jesus to heal her daughter. Rev. Janet ponders whether Jesus' exhaustion led to what many have interpreted to have been an abrupt response, showing the human side of his existence. The women's response about breadcrumbs, shows Jesus that there is room in God's Kingdom for all.

In this homily on the Fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost, The Rev. Marnie Silk Wright, a Pastoral Care Associate at St. George Episcopal Church, discusses the underlying theme in the lessons and psalm for the day – how to live and love. She reminds us that in this context “love” is a verb. Love is to be actively pursued using all of our senses not just what we see. Through God's grace and the Holy Spirit, we continually learn how to love our neighbors (even our enemies) and ourselves and how to live into the being God wants us to be.
