Again? So soon?
I had the pleasure of preaching for the Mission Bay crowd again this evening only two weeks after the last time I preach to them. A rather quick turn around for me.
It was made all the more interesting for me since Thanksgiving was celebrated in the week following that sermon. In addition, life at the seminary went into high gear. We have reached the end of the semester crunch and much of last week was spent preparing for and putting on the annual worship services of Lessons & Carols.
All of that meant that most of the work on the sermon today took place yesterday morning and this morning. (Thanks to having evening services this was actually possible.) But it all came together just fine.
We had a good evening of worship and people offered some great thoughts and insights as well as meaningful prayers for our world and our community. Our topic for this evening, the 2nd Sunday of Advent, was " The Word Made Flesh: PEACE."
I preach next on the Sunday following Christmas at Old First Presbyterian Church.
