Join hosts Rolf Jacobson, Karoline Lewis, and Matt Skinner for another engaging episode of Sermon Brainwave as they tackle the challenging texts for October 5th, 2025. In this episode, the hosts dive deep into Luke 17:5-10, exploring the disciples' request to "increase our faith" and Jesus' puzzling response about mustard seeds and mulberry trees. They grapple with the difficult connection between faith and obedience, and whether Jesus is redirecting or chastising his followers. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Rolf introduces Habakkuk as perhaps the best biblical example of what faith truly means - not passive waiting, but active resistance and trust in God's vision even when the world seems to be falling apart. The hosts explore how "the righteous will live by faith" plays out in times of societal chaos and personal struggle. The episode also touches on Lamentations as a theology of witnessing suffering, 2 Timothy's emphasis on faithful endurance, and practical ways to incorporate lament into worship and preaching. Whether you're a preacher preparing for Sunday or someone interested in thoughtful biblical interpretation, this episode offers fresh insights into these challenging texts. Commentaries for the Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost can be found on the Working Preacher website at https://www.workingpreacher.org/commentaries/revised-common-lectionary/ordinary-27-3/commentary-on-luke-175-10-6. * * * Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share to stay connected with more insightful lectionary discussions!

Word for the Day is a short daily podcast that seeks to encourage us daily as disciples by deepening our understanding of scripture and helping us develop a Biblical life and worldview. Email info@saintpatrickschurch.org to share your topic ideas.
Our Bible Reading of the Day is Luke 15. Jesus shares three parables demonstrating our heavenly Father's concern for the lost. The shepherd leaves the ninety-nine sheep to seek one that was lost. A woman sweeps the house to find one of ten silver coins. In the parable of the lost son, a young man squanders his inheritance, ending up in squalor. Determined to plead for his father's mercy and beg to return as a servant, the son instead receives a celebration. Angered at his father's welcome for the prodigal, the older son confronts his father. The father's gentle response reassures the young man of the father's everlasting love and care.

(3x)Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen. From Psalm 51Open my lips, O Lord, *and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.Create in me a clean heart, O God, *and renew a right spirit within me.Cast me not away from your presence *and take not your holy Spirit from me.Give me the joy of your saving help again *and sustain me with your bountiful Spirit.Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen. A PsalmPsalm 92Bonum est confiteriIt is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to your Name, O Most High;To tell of your loving-kindness early in the morning and of your faithfulness in the night season;On the psaltery, and on the lyre, and to the melody of the harp.For you have made me glad by your acts, O Lord; and I shout for joy because of the works of your hands.Lord, how great are your works! your thoughts are very deep.The dullard does not know, nor does the fool understand, that though the wicked grow like weeds, and all the workers of iniquity flourish,They flourish only to be destroyed for ever; but you, O Lord, are exalted for evermore.For lo, your enemies, O Lord, lo, your enemies shall perish, and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.But my horn you have exalted like the horns of wild bulls; I am anointed with fresh oil.My eyes also gloat over my enemies, and my ears rejoice to hear the doom of the wicked who rise up against me.The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, and shall spread abroad like a cedar of Lebanon.Those who are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God;They shall still bear fruit in old age; they shall be green and succulent;That they may show how upright the Lord is, my Rock, in whom there is no fault. Psalm 93Dominus regnavitThe Lord is King; he has put on splendid apparel; the Lord has put on his apparel and girded himself with strength.He has made the whole world so sure that it cannot be moved;Ever since the world began, your throne has been established; you are from everlasting.The waters have lifted up, O Lord, the waters have lifted up their voice; the waters have lifted up their pounding waves.Mightier than the sound of many waters, mightier than the breakers of the sea, mightier is the Lord who dwells on high.Your testimonies are very sure, and holiness adorns your house, O Lord, for ever and for evermore. Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen. The Readings2 Corinthians 6:16–7:1What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said,“I will make my dwelling among them and walk among them,and I will be their God,and they shall be my people.Therefore go out from their midst,and be separate from them, says the Lord,and touch no unclean thing;then I will welcome you,and I will be a father to you,and you shall be sons and daughters to me,says the Lord Almighty.”Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God. The Word of the LordThanks Be to God Matthew 15:21–28And Jesus went away from there and withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon. And behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came out and was crying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely oppressed by a demon.” But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away, for she is crying out after us.” He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” But she came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, help me.” And he answered, “It is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.” She said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table.” Then Jesus answered her, “O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed instantly. The Word of the LordThanks Be to GodThe Apostles' CreedI believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth;I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. ExamenIn God's presence, think through the day ahead:the work you will do, the people you will encounter, the dangers or uncertainties you face, the possibilities for joy and acts of kindness, any particular resolutions you need to renew, consider what might draw you from the love of God and neighbor, the opportunities you will have to know and serve God and to grow in virtue, remember those closest to you and all for whom you have agreed to pray, ask God's blessings, guidance, and strength in all that lies before you. Gather up these thoughts and reflections in the wordsOur Savior taught us to say: The Lord's PrayerOur Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. The Collects of the DayO God, because without you we are not able to please you, mercifully grant that your Holy Spirit may in all things direct and rule our hearts; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. Lord God, almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought us in safety to this new day: Preserve us with your mighty power, that we may not fall into sin, nor be overcome by adversity; and in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Closing PrayersA Prayer of St. ChrysostomAlmighty God, you have given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common supplication to you; and you have promised through your well-beloved Son that when two or three are gathered together in his Name you will be in the midst of them: Fulfill now, O Lord, our desires and petitions as may be best for us; granting us in this world knowledge of your truth, and in the age to come life everlasting. Amen. Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen.Lord, have mercy! (3x)God, be gracious to us and bless us and shine Your countenance upon us and have mercy on us.This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it!The Father+ is my hope; the Son, my refuge; the Holy Spirit, my protection: All-Holy Trinity, glory to You!Amen!

As we continue our journey through the Wisdom literature of the Bible, this week we hear from Wisdom herself. Join us as we are challenged to heed the call of Wisdom. Text: Proverbs 1:20-33
34 But the Pharisees hearing that he had silenced the Sadducees, came together:Pharisaei autem audientes quod silentium imposuisset sadducaeis, convenerunt in unum : 35 And one of them, a doctor of the law, asking him, tempting him:et interrogavit eum unus ex eis legis doctor, tentans eum : 36 Master, which is the greatest commandment in the law?Magister, quod est mandatum magnum in lege? 37 Jesus said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.Ait illi Jesus : Diliges Dominum Deum tuum ex toto corde tuo, et in tota anima tua, et in tota mente tua. 38 This is the greatest and the first commandment.Hoc est maximum, et primum mandatum. 39 And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.Secundum autem simile est huic : Diliges proximum tuum, sicut teipsum. 40 On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets.In his duobus mandatis universa lex pendet, et prophetae. 41 And the Pharisees being gathered together, Jesus asked them,Congregatis autem pharisaeis, interrogavit eos Jesus, 42 Saying: What think you of Christ? whose son is he? They say to him: David's.dicens : Quid vobis videtur de Christo? cujus filius est? Dicunt ei : David. 43 He saith to them: How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying:Ait illis : Quomodo ergo David in spiritu vocat eum Dominum, dicens : 44 The Lord said to my Lord, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?Dixit Dominus Domino meo : Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum? 45 If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?Si ergo David vocat eum Dominum, quomodo filius ejus est? 46 And no man was able to answer him a word; neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.Et nemo poterat ei respondere verbum : neque ausus fuit quisquam ex illa die eum amplius interrogare.
Sermon By Pastor Tom,"Faith Works Patiently."
2 Samuel 24:18-25; Philippians 2:1-11; John 12:20-33
The life, death, and resurrection of Jesus were the ultimate expression of the truth that God does the work of redemption as a pure and unqualified gift. All that's left for us to do is try to believe that broken and imperfect lives like ours could be included in that perfect love and then live out of the gratitude that results.

We use our tongues a lot. We use them to swallow, speak, and help us chew food. They're the strongest muscle in the human body relative to its size. It likewise, has an outsized impact on our lives. The words it forms can edify or eviscerate. So, Jonathan and Seth discuss words and speech this week based on James' comment that "the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great exploits" (3:5). What makes speech so powerful? How can we use it to benefit others? How does human speech mirror God's speech? There are too many questions to answer in one podcast episode, but we tried nonetheless. We're thrilled you're with us! As the lectionary moves to the end of Year B, the texts become more apocalyptic, so stay tuned for some wild stories and discussions about the other appointed texts (as we try to skirt talking about the end times week after week).
Join Profs. Karoline Lewis, Joy J. Moore, and Matt Skinner for a conversation on the Revised Common Lectionary texts for the Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost (Ord. 24B) on September 15, 2024. The cohosts explore the theme of identity and the question of who Jesus is. They also discuss the importance of wisdom and the power of words; as well as the need for self-denial and taking up one's cross in following Jesus. The conversation concludes with a reflection on the impact of words and the importance of speaking words of life and hope.
