“In a New York Minute”
I will be following the lectionary in July, and will be preaching mostly from the Gospel of Mark, chapters 5 and 6. For my first Sunday, I’m looking at 2 stories in Mark 5: 21-43 – a story sandwiched in between a story. Both stories have to do with how everything can change “in a New York minute.” (And yes, I’m singing the Eagle’s song in my head as I write this!)
This is Holy Communion Sunday, and all will be invited to remember how Jesus changed everything in a New York minute, and all will be invited to participate in their own life-changing moment.
I will share a couple of personal stories about how giant shifts in relationship can happen in a New York minute. I don’t always use personal stories, but one of my goals on the first Sunday is to start the process of us getting to know each other.
