Okay I am sorry for the delay in getting this post up for listening, responding and such. I would like to say I have a really good excuse but that would not be the truth so I’ll just say that I have been feeling really busy lately, note the “feeling” in the above. Feeling busy and being busy frequently overlap but to say that they always overlap is at best disingenuous, you will have to check with my family to see if I have been really busy or just feeling it.

Nevertheless, here are the sermons on Trinity Sunday, the last of the three in a row high holy days. I am very interested in any response, as always, but even more than usual in this case. The Trinity is both a mystery and a critical doctrine of the Church, if I didn’t handle it well, I will really appreciate your input.

Blessings,

Barry

    Not ashamed
