  • Sermon for Homecoming 2020 Exodus 14:19-31 Rev. Shannon a White Wilton Presbyterian Church September 13, 2020 Have You Ever Been
    Sermon for Homecoming 2020 Exodus 14:19-31 Rev. Shannon A White Wilton Presbyterian Church September 13, 2020 Have you ever been lost? It’s a disorienting feeling, isn’t it? I remember two instances… the first, I was with my family when my daughter was young. We were walking on a path in a state park in CT where had been were camping for the weekend. I was in front, and I realized at some point we must have turned the wrong way somewhere along the trailway. As I noticed the sun beginning to go down a bit, I was frantic that we wouldn’t find the right trail to get us back to our camp site before it was dark. The other time I remember pricked much more at my sense of pride. I was, once again hiking, although this was a 10-day trek in the High Sierras in California. It was part of a course pre-seminary with 15 other seminarians and 2 guides designed for inner personal and spiritual growth and community building. Each of the students was given a day to lead the group – only utilizing the help of a typographical map. I had only some experience using this type of map and was very unsure of my abilities to get us from point A to point B in the allotted time. In addition, each of us were carrying 50-pound packs on our backs… so the weight of making a wrong decision and taking us up a steep ridge, only to find that we had gone the wrong way, literally had major implications for the group.
