  • Easter 6 2017 Acts 8: 5-17 There Is So Much Lovable Material in the Acts of Apostles, Fifth Book in the New Testament. We Hear
    Easter 6 2017 Acts 8: 5-17 There is so much lovable material in the Acts of Apostles, fifth book in the New Testament. We hear it every Sunday in the Easter season as first reading. We mostly ignore it. Church officials have cut out the colorful material, thinking it trivial, an error I will now remedy. We shouldn’t be surprised at the book’s lovability. It was written by Luke the gentle physician, author of the third gospel. He was a real literary writer, adept in the creation of character. He is therefore like the Russian writer Chekhov who could be funny and poignant in the same story or play, and was also a medical doctor. When you examine someone dressed in a skimpy hospital gown for medical purposes, I suspect it is both touching and absurd. I often extol Luke’s unique contributions to the Jesus story (contrasting with dull, didactic approaches): he gives us the good Samaritan, prodigal son, penitent thief--brilliant characters—and, best of all, the Christmas story from Mary’s viewpoint, with the angels and shepherds. A sequel is always inferior to the original book (think of the attempt for Gone with the Wind). Acts is a sequel, yet has many delightful episodes. For example, the Christians are being persecuted and Peter is imprisoned. “Peter in chains” is Fr Peter’s preferred patron-saint story, grimly shackled as he is to school duties. An angel (what Chekhov makes a walk-on role, Luke makes an angel) comes through the prison walls at the silence of midnight, with a key (why would an angel need one?), releasing Peter from his cell, and leading him through the empty streets.

  • The Acts of the Apostles – Session 3 April 1 – Saul’S Conversion & Peter’S Gentile Ministry – Acts 9-12
    The Acts of the Apostles – Session 3 April 1 – Saul’s Conversion & Peter’s Gentile Ministry – Acts 9-12 Welcome & Introduction • The book of Acts is all about the movement of the Holy Spirit. In this time of challenge and upheaval of our lives, how have you experienced the presence of the Holy Spirit in your life? In other words, how has God shown up? Acts 9:1-31 Meanwhile Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any who belonged to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. Now as he was going along and approaching Damascus, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” He asked, “Who are you, Lord?” The reply came, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. But get up and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do.” The men who were traveling with him stood speechless because they heard the voice but saw no one. Saul got up from the ground, and though his eyes were open, he could see nothing; so they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus. For three days he was without sight, and neither ate nor drank. Now there was a disciple in Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias.” He answered, “Here I am, Lord.” The Lord said to him, “Get up and go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas look for a man of Tarsus named Saul.

  • Rhoda, a Servant Girl Acts 12:13 'Peter Knocked at the Outside Door
    Rhoda, A Servant Girl Acts 12:13 ‘Peter knocked at the outside door and a servant girl called Rhoda came to answer it.’ In this section of the book of Acts, we encounter a number of big figures. There is Herod: dark, threatening, ruthless and cruel. His name is mentioned once only, but in the verses which come before our reading, we are told that he began to persecute some members of the church. He had James the brother of John put to death by the sword and when he saw that this pleased the Jews he went on to arrest Peter and imprisoned him. Herod was a formidable figure as far as the church was concerned and yet his time was soon to come. In the verses following our reading we find Herod at variance with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came to him to sue for peace and Herod put on his royal robes, sat on his throne and made a speech for which he received great praise. The people who heard it said, ‘It isn’t a man speaking but a god’. Herod did not give the glory to God as he should have done and he was eaten by worms and died. Such is the fate, ultimately, of those who set themselves up against God. Then there is the figure of Mary, the mother of John Mark. This is the only time she is mentioned in the New Testament but here she stands tall. It was in her home that the believers met for prayer and to which Peter came on his release from prison.

  • The Church of Rhoda by Bishop Patricia Lull
    The Church of Rhoda by Bishop Patricia Lull This sermon was given by Bishop Lull during the 2019 Bishop’s Theological Conference at Cragun’s Resort on October 14. Based on Acts 12:1-19, the message is dedicated to a “rising generation of Rhodas.” It recounts the conference theme of “A Holy Commotion.” The conference brought together 80 pastors and deacons from our synod for study led by Dr. Eric Barreto on the book of Acts, connection with peers and relaxation. Grace and peace to you in the name of the Most High God. Amen. Do you belong to the church of St. Rhoda? I checked on Google and could find no churches by that name among the Lutherans, the Cath- olics, the Presbyterians, the Moravians or the Pentecostals. That pretty much means that there are no churches named after this memorable young adult from the Book of Acts. What would it mean to belong to the church of St. Rhoda? You would have to be able to hear what you cannot yet see, because it is Rhoda who recognizes Peter’s voice on the other side of the locked door. You would need to believe what others disparage as impossible, unrea- sonable, wishful or unbalanced thinking because Rhoda is regarded that night as Mary Magdalene was regarded when she first brought news of the resurrected Christ to the grieving disciples. You would need to be willing to be dismissed because you are too young, too flighty, too exuberant to be taken seriously even among the Christians who know you best because Rhoda was a member of that household of believers.

  • Community 50+ Newsletter
    COMMUNITY 50+ NEWSLETTER January Vol. 21 Issue 1 A Message from Amy It’s January 2021 & We Pray for You a Spirit-filled New Year! As I was looking back at what Community 50+ managed to accomplish in 2020 and how we as a group shifted over the year, I was pleased. There was certainly a lot happening between the lines of “Zoom & Learns” and “Biscuits Under the Portico.” Hopefully, we were all able to take in a deeper understanding of “And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:7. If you are not experiencing that kind of peace, I pray you move closer to God and ask Him to help you experience His peace. No matter how deep the hurt or loss may be, He is a big and gracious God that longs to walk with you through it all. Here is a run-down of what C50+ accomplished in 2020: Before shelter in place, we were “Champions” for the youth where we shared dinner and games in Jan & Feb. We gathered for a 50’s style lunch in January, a Game Night in February, as well as being “Grand Fans” cheering on those in the Kids Production in early March! Then we added: • Zoom and Learn o Stroke Recognition – BE FAST – Time is Brain! With Dr. Serendipity Zapanta Rinonos, M.D., PhD in June o Dr. Dave DeMaster – “Coping with Change – Finding a new normal is a world of constant change” in July o Pastor Russel Joyner – “Is there a good side to sin?” in September o Sally Klimko – Never Stop Growing – Finding Purpose Post Retirement in November • Mask, made by Dorcas Daughters, were distributed to C50+.
