    Most nativity scenes portray a cute scene of a happy little family, & friendly visitors. That's the way we like to think of it, but it's hardly realistic. When we pause at the manger with this image, we maybe forget that this infant was born to die.

But for my dad, he ...read more

    The Provocative Entry

    Contributed by Byron Perrine on Jul 9, 2019
     | 3,031 views

    Palm Sunday helps us correctly understand humility in relationship to others, and Christian vocation in relationship to God. The following discourse is based upon one of the first sermons I preached, a “Palm Sunday” sermon given many years ago.

    With Israel celebrating its "67th Birthday", here comes this message which in effect is a sneak peek into its rich scriptural tradition about some "events" which for many Christians' would frankly be an eye-opener when viewed from a Rabbi's perspective!
