May God help each and every one of us to love each other, and help each other, and trust each other. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, amen.”

These are Cassius’ closing words of the pamphlet. After his text he reproduces Cowper’s poem “The Negro’s Complaint.”

Henri on the way

Several days ago I commented that Henri Nouwen’s The Wounded Healer merited another read.  So Henri and I have shared some late night reading time, and I’m mulling it over before posting. Stay tuned for several reflective posts.

sermon chart video

One of my colleagues passed this along. It is a sermon, complete with a large bed-sheet sermon chart. About two years ago I blogged about DCHS’ acquisition of Noble Tester’s collection of sermon charts (http://mcgarveyice.blogspot.com/2006/04/noble-tester-collection.html). The chart in the youtube sermon bears some resemblance, in content and in style, to a few in the Tester collection. Thought you would enjoy seeing a sermon-chart sermon in action.
