Grace: It's Our Way of Life

As Episcopal Christians we
Worship at home daily and together weekly;
Study the Scriptures, our tradition, and what it means to be a disciple today;
Serve our families, our parish, and our world in the name of Christ.

Everything we do is done with an ethic of Welcome
because we are only here by Grace.

Sermon, Pentecost 5, Proper 7, Year C, 23 June 2013 - Elijah, Crazy People and You (and me too) - 8 a.m.




Sermon on the how Jesus heals even crazy people like us, and on how that forces us to change, whether we think we are the crazy person or not.  Can we let Jesus be Lord?  Or do we chase him off like the people of the Gerasenes?

1 Kings 19:1-15a
Psalm 42 and 43
Galatians 3:23-29
Luke 8:26-39

The Collect
O Lord, make us have perpetual love and reverence for your holy Name, for you never fail to help and govern those whom you have set upon the sure foundation of your loving­kindness; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
