I’m not Christian or Catholic or Protestant. I couldn’t even tell you the difference between the bunch (execpt I’d never date a Roman Catholic again). But every now and then I go to church. I couldn’t tell you exactly what religion it is, except that they don’t say the J word that often, and when they do I hear beeeeeep.
I want you to listen to this audio recording. It’s the podcast from the sermon. If you’re not religious, open your mind a little, because it really is quite good. It starts out a little rocky (as it was recorded from my iphone) but then gets sorted out. It’s 45 minutes long and gets better as it goes. Jesus is only mentioned once.
Listen to it. I wouldn’t have posted it if it wasn’t worth it.
Dear Allison:
ReplyDeleteI'm not listening to a 45 minute sermon... even though i love you
Alex
Dear Alex,
DeleteYou're a garbage-face
Sincerely, Realme
ps. you spelt my name wrong!
Hmmmmmm....perhaps this weekend. Must be interesting if you went to all that trouble. Alex has a point...ours is a culture of instant gratification and you'r really asking a lot. But, I'll bite, A. WD
ReplyDeleteListened to your posted 47 minute sermon. The guys has some interesting things to say. He has his "formula" approach to religion, of course, but he does sound non-judgmental, kind, and authentic. His views may differ from yours but who knows, really, what the answers are. Maybe not the "big book of Jewish fairy tales" (Jon Stewart, The Daily Show), maybe that? We'll all find out in the end, won't we? Two things he said cracked me up--along with the audience. One was that you can't diet by just licking the potato chips, instead of eating them. The other is that people don't need "corks on forks" to be protected against themselves. I found complete agreement on his statement about sex and intimacy, "Its a gift". Yes it is. Ciao, WD
