Liturgical Sunday: First Sunday after Christmas

Sermon Title: So what does “time” mean anyway?

St. Mark’s Presbyterian [audio:https://wordsfromthemiddle.ca/wp-content/uploads/120101_-_St_Marks.mp3|titles=So what does “time” mean anyway?]

The beginning of a new calendar year lends us an opportunity to think about a wide range of things from resolutions to predictions; this year it made me think about time. I am by no means suggesting that my notion abou how God experiences time is correct but I do think it is a possibility.

Blessings,

Another question?
ByBarry 2023/10/222023/10/22
Well, yes. This week’s sermon title is another question, as so many of my sermon titles are. This week the question is “Whose is it?” The sermon is drawn from our Gospel lesson, Matthew 22:15-22, the famous “render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s” passage. The phrase “render unto Caesar” and its variants have moved into…

Born again again?
ByBarry 2017/03/122017/03/12
This Sunday I think I sailed as close to the wind of heresy as I ever have . . . or will. So let me make something explicitly clear right from the beginning: the moment you move into a relationship with God through Jesus empowered by the Holy Spirit (what is frequently called “conversion”) you…

What would you ask for?
ByBarry 2021/08/152021/08/15
It seems to take some of us quite a while to learn that if we don’t ask for what we need, we probably won’t ever get it. This makes sense in children who are trying to figure out how the world works but it makes less sense when you are well into adulthood and still…

Both weaker and stronger
ByBarry 2017/09/172017/09/17
The blog post title is one of the “almost paradoxes” that come up whenever we begin the process of living and thinking from a non-dual perspective. Our usual response to the notion of weaker and stronger is that we are one or the other and that’s that. Of course when we actually look at it,…
