RevMerle: Musings and Mutterings on what I see God up to in this world.: RevMerle

“Things Are Looking Up” Luke 21:25-36

I’m a little tired of all the warnings that seem to have become a part of everyday life. I flip though the television channels and some new breakthrough drug is being pitched to me for an ailment that I never really knew was a problem before, and I wouldn’t have known it if the company […]

To Where are you pointing?” John 18:33-38

This is Christ the King Sunday, a festival that is a little quirky to say the least. It is sometimes hailed as kind of a collapsing down of the whole church year into a single day, a time to look at where we are pointing as people of faith. Do we point to the world, […]

“As You Have Been Blessed.” Isaiah 25:6-9

“On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wines, of rich food filled with marrow, of well-aged wines strained clear.” Isaiah with a few strokes of his pen evokes in us a flood of emotion, of yearning, and all the power of […]

“Truth Takes a Beating” John 8:31-36

The truth has been taking quite a beating lately, or at least that’s the way it feels. Maybe it’s just the political season and the incessant negative advertising. Claims and counter-claims are made. Half-truths are disguised as facts. Cleverly edited video and audio clips are quoted which seem to imply one thing when another was […]

Is this Probable? Possible? Mark 10:17-31

“Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!  It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”            It’s just so hard to visualize, this metaphor of a camel going through the eye of a […]

Stewardship Notes from the Pastor

Stewardship Notes from the Pastor

“As you have been blessed…” has wrapped up, and all that is left now is during this month to reflect back on the experience and make some commitments for 2019. As I said, this was a little different kind of emphasis. Less about money, or doing, and more about being and thinking about what brings … Continue reading Stewardship Notes from the Pastor

From the Intern

From the Intern

We are entering the season of Advent, a time of preparation. We prepare ourselves for Christmas – we shop for presents for our loved ones; we decorate our homes; we may prepare favorite or traditional Christmas cookies or candies. In my family, we always make peppernuts, a kind of gingerbread-flavored cookie smaller than an acorn. … Continue reading From the Intern

On Being an Ally

On Being an Ally

Watching old news reels and war movies one is struck by the use of the term “Ally.” “Allied forces moved into France….” “Our Allies across the sea are standing their ground against oppression…” “We are Allies in ideology with…” Being an ally meant aligning yourself with something that may not at first seem to directly … Continue reading On Being an Ally

A Message From Sarah

Thank you all for welcoming me to St. James! I’m excited to be here, to get to know you all as we worship and grow together. I look forward to this learning experience over the next two years. Currently, I am at the church during office hours on Wednesdays and Fridays, and on 2nd, 3rd, … Continue reading A Message From Sarah

Let the Redeemed of the Lord Say So

Let the Redeemed of the Lord Say So

Oh give thanks to the Lord for he is good, his steadfast love endures forever. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from trouble, and gathered in lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south. — Psalm 107:1-3 Maintaining a sense of gratitude … Continue reading Let the Redeemed of the Lord Say So
