There was once a man so out of touch with American sports that he scheduled a live stream for a Sunday night, the same night as the Super Bowl.
That man was me.
So, obviously, we will not be gathering in The Piazza on Feb. 12
Let's try for the 26th
Then we can begin a conversation about Lent on the 20th at The Pub
But continue it on the 26th
(And I have not forgotten about the Hesychasts...)
Thank you for your patience 😬
I mentioned in The Journey that I wrote a song based on Isaiah 2, which is one of my favorite OT passages:
In days to come, the mountain of the Lord’s house
shall be established as the highest mountain, and raised above the hills.
All nations shall stream toward it. Many peoples shall come and say:
“Come, let us go up to the Lord’s mountain, to the house of the God of Jacob, That he may instruct us in his ways, and we may walk in his paths.” For from Zion shall go forth instruction, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
He shall judge between the nations, and set terms for many peoples.
They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; One nation shall not raise the sword against another, nor shall they train for war again. House of Jacob, come, let us walk in the light of the Lord!
I hope you like the song!
I hope to have another installment of THE JOURNEY up this Saturday - here's the text for the rest of the chapter - I didn't bother with the colored text since this is all from the Gospel of John.
