Worship Booklet Sermon In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lofty, and the hem of his robe filled the Temple. Seraphs were in attendance above him; each had six wings, with two they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. And one called to another: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of host; the whole earth is full of his glory.” (Isaiah 6:1-3) This is the call of Isaiah to his prophetic ministry through glorious theophany. We still hear its echoes in our service of Hoy Eucharist 2,500 years after the seraphs uttered the words: Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; The whole earth is full of his glory.

Worship Booklet Sermon What does the Bible tell us about income disparity … the fact that some company executives make one hundred times as much as the wage-earner working on the assembly line? What does Jesus say … if he says anything at all … about how systemic racism and Jim Crow programs like red-lining have adversely affected wealth accumulation … or the lack thereof … for Blacks in this country? If we are to take seriously what Jesus took seriously, what are we to do with issues like reparations for the land-grab from Native Americans and First Nation people by European settlers? |
