		<title>Holy Nation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I actually thought yesterday was the end of the world so I didn’t bother preparing a sermon… Guess they’ll have to recalculate. ‘I am the way.’ ‘Show us the way, asks Thomas.’  ‘We don’t know where you’re going.’  We know that the early Christians were called the ‘way’ as we talked about last week.  What [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[1 Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, 2 but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night. 3 That person is like a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Salt and Light (February 6, 2011)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Define this proverb: “A man is known by his friends.” I have a fundamental assumption.  This is an assumption that goes for just about everything—church life, home life, school life, family life.  When we put ourselves in the Lord’s presence, when you put yourself in the Lord’s presence—change occurs—and it is the kind of change [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stabilitas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Jeremiah 29:1-13 Amitai Etzioni, a professor of international studies at George Washington University writes this about an interaction he had with an audience about our current economic downturn: ‘When I asked an audience, “Do you really need a flat-screen TV?

		<title>Hospitality</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You know the Hindu concept of Karma?  One definition goes like this:  Karma is “A consequence or “fruit of action” (karmaphala) or “after effect” (uttaraphala), which sooner or later returns upon the doer. What we sow, we shall reap in this or future lives. Selfish, hateful acts (papakarma or kukarma) will bring suffering. Benevolent actions [...]]]></description>

		<title>Learning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today’s topic form Benedict’s toolbox is ‘learning.’ I start today asking you some basic questions: On a ‘teachable’ scale are you average, above average, or below average?  What prevents you from learning more?  What (or who) encourages you to learn?

		<title>Conversion&#8211;Benedictine Spirituality</title>
		<description><![CDATA[From the prophet Jeremiah, “Let the prophet who has a dream tell the dream, but let the one who has my word speak my word faithfully.  What has straw in common with wheat? Says the LORD.  Is not my word like fire, says the LORD, and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?” [...]]]></description>
