8.22.21 Proper 16B: Power of the Armor of God
mcrigler's podcast
Beloved— especially in such times as of this— my hope and my prayers is that as the writer to the Ephesians says we might “be strong in the Lord and in the strength of [God’s] power.” In a world doubled over in pain and suffering… in a world swirling with disinformation needlessly costing people lives… in a world reeling from the costs to our children of imposing ‘normal’ onto that which is not— in our world I pray that we might “be strong in the Lord and in the strength of [God’s] power” and declare the gospel boldly. From where I stand our world is in...

5.16.21 7thEasterB: Jesus and the Holy Potatoes
mcrigler's podcast
... I cannot help but me mindful of the liturgical moment in which we find ourselves. We are in that 7th Sunday of Easter, in the time between the Ascension of our Lord into heaven and the descending of the Holy Spirit upon the apostles, upon the ministers, making the church the church and saying ‘it is time.” And so liturgically and actually we find ourselves in that liminal time of transition. We all know that life has changed, and what it has changed into being has not yet unfurled. We hear in that first chapter of Acts, in the time between Ascension and Pentecost that this the...
info_outline...I am mindful of all that we mourn particularly because today— All Saints’ Day in the triduum (three days) of All Hallow’s Eve, All Saints’ and All Souls’ is a day were we face death and ghouls and anything that might go bump in the night, stare them down and with tricks and treats, calaveritas and feasting, proclamation and hope, and the whole of the great cloud of witnesses— the whole communion of all saints we say to that which would drag us down, that which would kill us, and (particularly this week) that which try to tear us apart our communion— we say to those powers: NO! In the name of Jesus, no. The powers of hell do not prevail. Death does not win...
