Tomorrow’s sermon on Lazarus and the rich man will include Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” (my favorite version is “Mickey’s Christmas Carol”), Mary’s Magnificat, Gustavo Gutiérrez, and stats on current famines in our world in Gaza, Sudan, South Sudan, Haiti, and Mali.

I’ve noticed my exhaustion and constantly playing games on my phone as a distraction from the real sorrow I feel about the events unfolding in our state, nation, and world. It’s okay to feel the sadness, friends. This is not the way it should be.
