Sermon for Sunday Pentecost 7, Proper 12A

It was a joy and privilege to preside and preach at St. Bede's Episcopal Church in Mar Vista (Los Angeles) last Sunday, July 27.  The Rector, Jim Newman, an Associate of Holy Cross and a friend of long standing, was on a well-deserved vacation.

Despite the best efforts of the lectionary revision people, this time all three lessons worked together for good, to use St. Paul's language from Romans in the second reading for the day.  At St. Bede's they record the sermons electronically and paste the link into the sermon page of the parish website, making it available for the benefit of shut-ins, people who can't get to church, and anyone else who might be interested.  Which might include you, gentle reader!

Lessons:
Genesis 29:15-28
Romans 8:26-39
Matthew 13:31-33, 44-52
