Blessed Are You

St. Patrick Presbyterian Church, EPC ·

2023/12/17

One of our staff members is the foster mother of a preternaturally perfect baby boy. As an occasional attendee of our staff meetings, this young fella contributes to the overall productivity by boosting morale to historic levels. His big smiles and gentle cooing create an atmosphere of joy that’s just impossible to measure. Even his rare moments of pouting motivate us to work harder for our little mascot. A ministry resident commented this week that he’s not being paid near what he’s worth, and that

The Annuniciation

2023/12/10

Years ago, Teri and I did an internship in Yazoo City. We were almost through with seminary and just had our first child. I was 22 hours short of graduating from seminary and was deciding if I would take all the classes in one semester or stretch it out over two. But we were broke, Teri wasn’t going back to work, and everything we had was old and worn out. Many of you have been in a similar situation of wrestling money, an expanding family, and school so you can relate to our predicament. And then

In The Fullness of Time

Advent! The world literally means, coming. That is, the coming of God into the world. This Sunday marks the beginning of our celebration of Advent at St. Patrick; and, especially if you are new, I can’t wait for you to journey with us the next four weeks leading up to Christmas. It is a time of obvious joy and celebration. I mean, if you can’t celebrate the coming of God in our flesh, what can you celebrate? But it is also a time of reflection and examination because we ponder the second coming of

The Coming of the King

As I write this, I am thinking about Thanksgiving. I’m trying to send in blogs, sermons, slides, so I can get on to preparing for the Thanksgiving Feast tomorrow. I must say, I have the elven magic on me earlier this year than normal. Addy and I broke our family’s standing tradition of putting our tree up after Thanksgiving and put it up two weeks ago while Teri was out visiting her mother. Space matters, so it feels like we have a jump on Christmas this year. As I was thinking about this, it hit

What Makes A Feast?

St. Patrick Presbyterian Church, EPC ·

2023/11/19

We’re wrapping up a whole semester of sermons haunted by the prophecy of Habakkuk. His potent and provocative image of a world “filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord” has influenced our own vision statement: “Saturating our neighborhoods with feasting families who tell a better story by setting tables of God’s grace for the lonely.” So, as our energy turns toward family holidays over the next several weeks, I think it would be helpful for us to consider just what exactly elevates a

The Transforming Vision

St. Patrick Presbyterian Church, EPC ·

2023/11/12

Most of my aquatic experience with boats has been with the motorized variety, but not all... I have known the thrill of taking a skirted kayak down river rapids in North Carolina, or the more mundane pleasure of working a canoe down a stream in Arkansas or Tennessee. While in Mississippi, my experience on the water was fishing farm ponds, using a single paddle to move the boat along. Only a few times have I been in an actual row boat, the kind that has two oars that fit in oarlocks (which are a kind

A Future and a Hope

St. Patrick Presbyterian Church, EPC ·

2023/11/05

We have just come through Halloween. It is a festive time to be really present in your neighborhood and have some fun while getting your steps in, as you follow wild, costumed children trick-or-treating down the middle of the street. Vats of chili are cooked, hot dogs are roasted, and themed cocktails with outlandish names are served. The reason we do this is somehow lost on us or has been forgotten. In the original sense, Halloween was done to mock evil. Yes, that is right—the way Satan is defeated

The Just Shall Live by Faith

2023/10/29

Sometimes you have serendipitous moments in life. We have all had them, usually not big things, like I had this week. I have been fighting armadillo in my yard. Armadillos are right up there with moles as prey that will destroy your flowers, grass, and beds. Not to mention they carry leprosy. Teri is threatening to not plant flowers anymore unless I get rid of them. I have eradicated them in the past when we had an influx of these scaled menaces, but this time I had not been successful.

The Crucible of Faith

St. Patrick Presbyterian Church, EPC ·

2023/10/22

One of the things that keeps coming up among those who have left the faith (or are deconstructing their faith) is that when they brought their doubts about Christianity or matters of faith to their parents, youth leaders, or church leaders, they were told, “We don’t ask those questions here.” Or, "Just accept it on faith.” As if doubt were the cardinal sin or, if you are a believer trusting in Jesus, doubt is not part of a life of faith. Habakkuk would beg to differ. Habakkuk prayed to

Recalled To Life!

I was between meetings in East Memphis last week and thought I would camp out at a coffee shop where one of our residents works part time. Walking in, I ran into a young man I’ve had a few spiritual conversations with but hadn’t seen in a couple of years. He asked what I was preaching on next and when I told him Hebrews 10, his eyes lit up. He quoted the entire passage from memory and said, “But what does it mean!?” Whenever we start talking about how “the righteous shall live by faith,” the

By Faith Alone

St. Patrick Presbyterian Church, EPC ·

2023/10/08

Let's take a bit of an excursion together! Or more specifically, an excursus. An excursus is a moment where an author moves away from the main topic to take a journey somewhere else that might fill in the main topic with more information and meaning. This is something you find in Moby Dick as Melville devotes entire chapters to ropes and cetology. Or more recently, you can find it in Star Wars with excurses (Solo, Rogue One, etc) giving meaning and depth to the main Skywalker Saga. We've been in the
