Here's a reflection on scriptures from Palm Sunday (though not for this Lectionary Year - I've gone rogue).  The praise of the crowds is pretty silent in this time of pandemic.  What blessings might come of the stones' having to cry out for us?

Here are Paul, Larisa and Constance reading the scripture texts for Epiphany 2, which serve as the foundation for the reflections in the homily entitled, "From Here to There". 

Thanks, friends, for lending your beautiful voices to this exploration of the revelation of God in text and Creation.

Here are friends lending their voices so that you can listen to the scripture texts for the First Sunday after Epiphany and the Feast of the Baptism of our Lord. These are the texts I reflect on in the homily "Holy Water."  Thanks to Anna Woofenden, Martha Henderson, Jon Spangler and AnnaMarie Hoos for recording these readings.

This homily reflects on the texts for the First Sunday after Epiphany/The Feast of the Baptism of our Lord, in the Revised Common Lectionary (Year A).

Thanks as always to Paul Damico-Carper for his beautiful recording of Jesus Christ the Appletree, which serves as our opening music.

Here are recordings of the lectionary texts for the Second Sunday of Christmas and Epiphany. Thanks to Paul Damico-Carper, Jared DeFigh, and the Rev. Canon Abbott Bailey for contributing their voices to this week's readings. 

A Christmas gift for you from a gifted musician friend. Paul Damico-Carper arranged and recorded this guitar/vocal setting of the carol "Jesus Christ the Apple Tree" for his family and friends a few Christmases back.  I'm so grateful that he's been willing to share it with us through this podcast project. If you've listened to the sermon for the second week of Advent (On Top-Grafting),  you know some of the story of how dear this hymn is to me and how it is shaping the theology behind our work here at Good Courage Farm.

Thanks to this week's contributors, Chelsey, Conie, Sanford and Gemma, for sending recordings from across the globe.  Here are the texts for this week, the First Sunday after Christmas:
