    The sermon urges us to notice and compassionately respond to those in need at our gates, opening our lives and tables with urgent, Christlike love.

    Some stories slip in quietly and sit down beside you. Others knock at the front door and ask to be heard. Jesus tells one that stands at the gate. We can see him, can’t we?
