    Sermon, January 3, 2016 2 Christmas Jeremiah 31:7-14, Psalm 84, Ephesians 1:3-6, 15-19, Matthew 2:1-12 By The Rev. Dr. Kim McNamara As I was taking down and putting away our Christmas decorations on New Year’s Day, my dear husband, John, teased me just a bit about my ritualistic behavior. In many ways, he is right. Christmas, for me, is guided by traditional rituals and symbols. Because I live a very busy life and work in an academic setting divided up into quarterly cycles, the rituals I have marked on the calendar help me to make sure I do everything I want to do in the short amount of time I have to do it in. Along with the rituals, the symbols serve as mental touchstones for me; focusing my attention, my thoughts, my reflections, my memories, and my prayers, on the many meanings of Christmas. My own Christmas rituals start in Advent with two traditional symbols of Christmas, the advent wreath and the nativity. On my birthday, which is exactly two weeks before Christmas, I buy a Christmas tree. (I am not sure what the symbolism is, but it sure is pretty.) As I grade final exams and projects for my students, I reward myself for getting through piles and hours of grading by taking breaks every now and then to decorate for Christmas. According to my ritual schedule, grades and Christmas decorations have to be completed by December 18. I then have two weeks to savor and reflect upon the wonder, beauty, and love of Christmas.

Michel!Tournier,!Anatole!France!&!Genesis 1 By Vladimir Tumanov Western University Abstract: This article deals with Michel Tournier as a writer of hypertexts. The first chapter of Gaspard, Melchior et Balthazar is considered with respect to two possible unmarked hypotextual connections. The first is a short story by Anatole France entitled “Balthasar,” and the Song of Songs is the key element that connects France's and Tournier's texts. The second is an episode from Genesis which I term The Sister- Wife Hoax. The main concern in this study is the issue of human dignity as it relates to race and sexuality.* 1 Published article here: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1600- 0730.1999.tb00288.x/abstract;jsessionid=170252514209CDD302FF5ADB79F3046E.f01t01 *I want to thank Lorna Milne, Anthony Purdy and Larissa Tumanov for all their help and advice. Black and White Vladimir Tumanov Orbis Litterarum 54 (4): 301-314. 3 Introduction: Hypertextuality Gérard Genette begins his discussion of hypertextuality with two major requirements: “La dérivation de l’hypotexte à l’hypertexte est à la fois massive (toute une œuvre B dérivant de toute une œuvre A) et déclarée, d’une manière plus ou moins officielle” (16). However, in his discussion of various hypertextual genres, Genette admits that the idea of a “dérivation déclarée” is too restrictive.

Since their inception, the Aircraft Non-Payment Insurance (“ANPI”) product has been used by many airlines, leasing companies and other market participants as an alternative source of finance for new aircraft beyond the traditional sources of aviation finance, including financings supported by the European Export Credit Agencies and the Export-Import Bank of the United States. However, despite becoming more prevalent and even with the recent notable closings of aircraft financings supported by the ANPI product, many aviation market participants still seem unsure what these ANPI products are or how they work. The ANPI product is a similar concept to export credit support that provides an insurance policy (rather than a guarantee) to lenders, who rely on the credit of the insurers underlying the ANPI product. At its core, the ANPI product protects investors from payment defaults by obligors (namely, customers Vedder Price Is Recognized in predominantly made up of airlines and leasing companies, who for the purposes of this note, shall be Multiple Top Deal Awards at Airline referred to as the “Customer”).

    The_Second_Sunday_After_Christmas ● Jeremiah 31:7-14 ● Ephesians 1:3-6,15-19a ● Matthew 2:13-15,19-23 ● or Luke 2:41-52 ● or Matthew 2:1-12 ● Psalm 84 or 84:1-8 So do we love our wise men or what? You know, I think I am hard pressed to think of characters in scripture who makes such a brief cameo, but who have inspired more imagination and folklore than our beloved magi. We've given them a starring role in our manger scenes, in our Christmas pageants, and in our creches, including our very own festival of gifts where we placed them right in front alongside the sheep and the shepherds and the manger, even though they were never mentioned in Luke's Nativity story at all. We've turned them into kings, though Matthew never mentions such a title. We've even decided there were only three of them because they gave three types of gifts. We've even given them names. Melchior, Caspar, and Balthazar are really cool names. We've spun tales about the different countries they've come from; Persia, India, Babylonia, though Matthew merely says they're from the East. What's more, there are plenty of biblical scholars who would argue that Matthew's account, even after we strip it of all of these myths we've added, is itself very likely apocryphal. In their view, Matthew is an evangelist, not a historian, and he is far less interested in an accurate accounting of the facts than he is in converting skeptical Jews by presenting Jesus as the new Moses.

  • Jesus Through the Eyes of Faith Jeremiah 31:1-6 John 20:1-18 “She Said to Them, 'They Have Taken Away My Lord, and I Do
    Jesus through the Eyes of Faith Jeremiah 31:1-6 John 20:1-18 “She said to them, ‘They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.’ When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus.” On this glad and holy morning when we greet one another with the words, “He is risen!” “He is risen indeed!” I suspect most of us in this sanctuary are saying more than we know. I think this because, on every other morning of our lives, what we know involves being able to see and hear and touch and test the object of our knowing. But when we say, “He is risen!” “He is risen indeed!” we are speaking as those who can only know and see him who was raised from the dead by faith. Now lest you think faith involves believing, with the White Queen of Alice through the Looking Glass, six impossible things before breakfast, let us agree that faith has nothing to do with believing even one impossible thing. Faith is a relationship of trust. It is the gift of a meeting,” Karl Barth says, “in which [we] are free to hear the word…God has spoken in Jesus Christ in such a way that, in spite of all that contradicts it, [we] may once for all, exclusively and entirely, hold to [God’s] promise and guidance.” To see Jesus through the eyes of faith is to put all your trust in the love that death cannot end.
