sermons and notes posted on this blog are not necessarily what came out of my mouth during the services,
but they'll offer a sense my dance with the Holy Spirit while preparing to preach

It’s good to inhale!

How dead is/are...(fill in the blank)? Are you beginning to smell the stink of rot... or are there only bones left at this point? 

It’s never too far gone. The same breath that blew over creation can redeem life and restore hope. Inhale - in with procreative spiritual cells of grace and love that builds muscles of faith.... exhale - out with any hopeless resignation that offers the dank stench of atrophy. 

Weary night watchman standing guard, longing for signs of dawn so that you can breathe more easily, inhale! 



[ref. lectionary readings for fifth Sunday of Lent, Year A]
