Jamie Howison's sermon for the Second Sunday in Advent, which draws on Dietrich Bonhoeffer's language of the "incomparable kindness" of God, which is revealed to us only after we've grappled with the truth that "the coming of God is truly not only glad tidings, but first of all frightening news."

Incomparable kindness

saint benedict’s table is a liturgical community in the Anglican tradition, deeply involved at the intersection of faith and culture. Along with posting our weekly Sunday sermons, we are creating new podcasts exploring themes and questions of interest both to the church and to the wider culture.  Inspired by what Robert Webber called “the church’s ancient-future,” we draw deeply on the great liturgical, theological and spiritual traditions of our forebears as we explore new ground, new music, new ideas and new futures.
