A canticle is a prayer found in the Bible that is from a place other than a Psalm. Zechariah's ability to speak was taken away from him after a little talk with an angel. When his son John was born, his power of speech was returned. What's the first thing you would say after being silent for 9 months? Zechariah prayed a prayer of such significance the church is still praying it after him today. Let's look at The Benedictus.

Jesus tells a story about how to choose your seat at a banquet, but he isn’t giving advice on etiquette, or on how to move up the social ladder. He is telling us about how the Kingdom of God works.

It is pretty hard to avoid the fact that neither the Hebrew Prophets, nor the Apostles, nor Jesus himself, have much to say to (and about) rich people that was comforting or favorable. But when you read closely, none of them were really talking about money. Not really. They were talking about the ultimate condition of the human soul. And that is why Jesus Christ can be good news for both the rich and the poor. Let's talk about that...

We idolize strength: physical strength, financial capacity, political power. We treat weakness with contempt. We dismiss it. Yet God tells us again and again how he seeks out the weak, and he teaches us that the only true strength comes from weakness. Is that just so much mystic mumbo jumbo? or is there really something to that? John 1:19-34

Back then, children grew up hearing the stories of Jehu and Judah Maccabee, so when Yeshua ben Yosef entered Jerusalem that day, it seemed to them like the old stories were coming alive. Can't blame them -- we see what we want to see, don't we? Read Mark 11:1-11 and listen to Pastor Dave's sermon to meditate on how this story reveals the real Good News. Based on scriptures 2 Kings 9:1-13 / Philippians 2:5-11 / Mark 11:1-11
Fifth Sunday in Lent

There he goes again, talking in riddles. A grain of wheat, earth, death, fruit. Riddles. I think Jesus loved the layered truth of the riddle (aka "parable"). Therefore, I think the answer may be at least threefold...God's Word, our life, and Christ's body. If that doesn't clear it up, maybe I can make it even murkier for you if you show up Sunday morning at 10:30 a.m for worship. Jesus will be here. Why don't you join him -- maybe he can clear it up. Pastor Dave preaching on scriptures Jeremiah 31:31-34 / Psalm 119:9-16 / Hebrews 5:5-10 / John 12:20-33

Best life now? Well, no. That's not what he said. He said, "lose your life." Hmmmm. Of course, the twist is that death (in Christ) is our best life, right now. How does that work?

The waiting of Advent is over. And so we gather to remember the birth of our Lord. But it isn’t a birth that we celebrate. We remember the birth because this is how the Most High God has come down to the dirt, to dwell as a human. The ancient words say it this way: “For us and for our salvation he became human.” For our salvation – and oh baby do we need saving.
