Mary’s Song of Liberation

2024-12-22
Rev. Keith McDevitt

As we wait for Christmas, Marry reminds us that God chooses the lowly, the poor, the refugee, and God sends away the rich and privileged. God favors the disadvantaged, the oppressed and the marginalized and brings wholeness.

Patience

Outrage as the only response won’t help anything. How we wait makes a difference. How will we as people of faith wait for the coming of shalom?

Why Do You Look for the Living Among the Dead?

Rev. Keith McDevitt

We are hanging on to hope and then we find the tomb empty. We are looking in the wrong place. Jesus has left the building. At the empty tomb, we experience awe. Now we need to go back out into the world, too.

There is Room

Rev. Keith McDevitt

The story may not have changed, but we have. The world has changed and so there is new meaning to be had in this story. There may not have been room in the inn, but we need to make room for the marginalized, the excluded, the refugee, the victimized and we will find Jesus.
