@stbartsnyc: “As we gather for worship this morning, profound pain is present in our country and in our world. Bombs are lighting up the skies of the Middle East. Bitter invective fills our political discourse. Vulnerable people live in the shadows of oppression and fear. As Christians we are called to respond to these realities with bold transgressive social witness. We are also called to respond to these realities by the clear communication of the convictions we firmly hold Yet at the end of the day, most people are not changed by spectacle or argument. They are converted by the experience of being seen and heard. The Samaritan woman is convinced by Jesus because He demonstrates an ability to tell her about herself. We too can benefit others by learning their stories, and reflecting those stories back. We too can make a difference through our efforts to know and understand.“ From “Tell Me Everything,” sermon preached by the Reverend Peter Thompson, Vicar and Interim Rector, on the Third Sunday in Lent, March 8, 2026.#episcopal #sermon #episcopalchurch @Peter Thompson
