An Ecology of Grace

You are welcome exactly as you are.

Dear Church: What a joy it was to share in worship with you this past Sunday. Thank you for the warm welcome you have extended to me and Jennifer. I recognize how much work is required of you to manage your Minister in Residence Program. I see you and give thanks to God for you.Your congregation's leadership has been wonderfully generous and hospitable. Congratulations to them -- and to you -- for creating this innovative way of "filling your pulpit." We look forward to getting to know you and sharing time with you both in and out of church.

This Sunday we will continue to explore the theme of forgiveness, which our lectionary has presented to us with its selection of the gospel lessons for these four Sundays in September. As I explained in Sunday’s sermon, the Gospel According to Matthew seems uniquely preoccupied with this theme, a sure sign that conflict was clearly an important part of life in the early Christian communities – hence the urgent calls from Matthew’s Jesus for his disciples to become expert practitioners in the arts of pardon and reconciliation.

This week we will also hear one of the Bible’s great stories on these themes, the story from Genesis of Joseph forgiving the brothers who once betrayed him. If you’d like to read ahead to prepare your hearts for this Sunday, nothing would prepare you better than to read Genesis 50, the capstone of this remarkable story.
