This past Sunday I had the opportunity to preach at my home congregation, South MacArthur Church of Christ. We took a look at Jeremiah 31:31-34 and meditated on Jeremiah's description of the new covenant. Below I've given a link to a video of the sermon, enjoy!
And yet it seems to me that writing, far from being an obstacle to perfection in my own life, has become one of the conditions on which my perfection will depend.
- Thomas Merton
...every time I overcome these fears and trust not only my own unique way of being in the world, but also my ability to give words to it, I experience a deep spiritual satisfaction. . . . What I am gradually discovering is that in the writing I come in touch with the Spirit of God within me and experience how I am led to new places.
