All Saints

On the Feast of All Saints, we pause to remember those who have led the way in faith. When news of injustice and violence in our world seems overwhelming. When it seems that the worst theologies are shaping policy, are shaping how our society treats one another, remember you are not alone. There are saints of God like Oscar, like Pauli, who have walked this way before.

Against Certainty

There are preachers out there who preach doctrines and positions about which, they say to the congregation, you can be certain. This morning, I am only certain about a handful of things, and I am certain that certainty is getting us into a great deal of trouble.
