About this listen
Hello, Blue Roomies!
Today, a sermon based on Matthew 1:18-25, Joseph’s dream.
“Poor Joseph. It’s only once every three years, when we’re in the book of Matthew, that we even hear anything about Jesus’ earthly father. Every other year, Joseph is basically a donkey jockey and a travel agent. And it’s the final Sunday in Advent when this story appears, when Christmas is so close we can taste the eggnog, when the energy in the room is vibrating, whether with excitement at what’s to come, or stress over too much to do, or tension over complicated relationships, family members long gone, and the baggage that often comes from this holiday. The timing of this story doesn’t lend itself to deep consideration of this quiet giant of the faith.
But that’s what he is.”

And here’s a link to the Nate Bargatze sketch I started with. Wonderful!
Steady on.
