True Drink: Alcohol and God
All of this is to say that, just as when Jesus speaks of eating his flesh he has in mind a starchy, glutinous knot of delicious carbohydrates, so too when Jesus speaks of drinking his blood he has in mind a smooth, sweet liquid that is irrefutably alcoholic. God could have chosen to offer himself to us in figs and water, in fish and olive oil, in vanilla ice cream and apple pie. God could have chosen to offer himself to us in a manner that didn’t involve food or drink at all. But God chose to offer himself to us in bread and wine. Alcohol, from the start, was a part of the plan. God wanted us to feel that sensation of relaxation, of our inhibitions being, if only for a few moments, if only to a certain extent, released. God wanted us to feel a bit more free. God wanted us to savor something refreshing and sweet.
- From "True Drink: Alcohol and God", the sermon preached by the Reverend Peter D. Thompson, on The Thirteenth Sunday After Pentecost, August 18, 2024.

Do Not Complain
zhlédnutí 73Před 16 hodinami
Whether it’s in First Testament or in the Second one, God seems to consistently characterize complaining as evidence of human faithlessness. Complaining is problematic not only because it is annoying-although it most certainly is-but because it demonstrates a lack of confidence in God’s ultimate ability to provide and deliver. The complaining the Israelites participate in, complaining that is t...

"One thing I've already heard from this community of nones, and dones, and pandemic drop-outs: they want the church to be the body that Paul describes in Ephesians. People are so hungry to be a part of a community of belonging, and meaning, and service, and generosity, and wisdom, and peace, and self-giving love. A community overflowing with God. They don't always see the Church living like tha...

"So, where are you on your journey? Where are we on our journey? Feels like most of us are stumbling through the wilderness, trying to understand why we are here and how we should live. Most of us are straining to listen for that still, small voice, or to be able to see in the distance ther smallest glimpse of something inexplicable and holy, and we cling to our little storm-tossed boats as we ...

    Tears! I was in a DC HS choral music group in 1980. We performed this piece in a mall in Chevy Chase or Bethesda MD. This sparked such a special memory and to see it performed with so much precision in different settings. The very best of technology is with the human touch. Thank you!!❤

    Most of my time is spent in solitude. But when I do connect with people, it is full and nourishing and lasts a long time. I also can feel better just by talking toy store clerk. I am 58 and more interested in spirituality. That said, I do think it is a national crisis, and I would love to open the center that brought people together. 💛🧡💖

    What a beautiful testimony of a life well lived. I didn’t know Chef, but I feel I do after listening to his loving friends and family. On a spiritual note, its a bit sad and shocking to hear the Priest cross herself saying “in the name of God”. Have you decided to remove The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit? It’s their church, after all.

    She strays far too far from the biblical text for me to accept her explanations as faithful to the Word - Although I recognise that it is interesting to reflect on the place of slavery in society at the time of the writing of the New Testament

    The "Trinity" is a Roman Catholic definition of the "Godhead". It is a man-made fabrication. Nowhere in the Bible is God called a "Trinity". No man on earth, not even the entire world has the authority to define God. He's quite capable of defining himself. And he did so in the Bible. Never did he or his son define him as a "Trinity". This is Rome's word. Rome owns it. It belongs to the one who created it. And Rome can change it whenever it wishes. No man is compelled to accept nor to use Rome's definition of God. But we will ALL be held to account to the God of the Bible!!! Let no man deceive you. God is not mocked. And Rome will burn for deceiving the whole world.

    I am one of those "Who tuned in for cat and stayed for catechism." I was first introduced to Dean Robert and the Garden Congregation because of my love for cats. First, on CZcams, I found his reading of Kipling's JUST SO STORIES, especially "The Cat Who Walked by Himself," and from there I discovered the Garden Congregation. It was a great support to me and to many others during the pandemic, and it continues to be a support to this day.

    Thank you. This was excellent. I am a Catholic religion educator originally from Massachsetts. Very interested in her work and in Jewish history and biblical studies and post-Catican II Catholic Feminist authors. Her combination of scholarship, Jewish comfortableness with the Bible and her human warmth and humor makes for a refreshing approach.
