Preaching, for the regular worship services this year is provided by Rev. Jacqueline Lewis. Although there has been some concern about her and her congregation’s position on homosexuality (expressed in new business yesterday, and resulting in a recommendation I’ll post next) she preached this morning and I am eager to express the blessing her preaching expresses.
Regardless of your particular position on homosexuality (which, frankly isn’t the issue here), she is unquestionably one of the most accomplished preachers I’ve heard in ages. Not “one of the most accomplished African American preachers” or one of the most accomplished women preachers” – but indeed one of, if not the most accomplished preachers…period.
The message was on Acts 2 (the Pentecost story) and the biblical mandate for a multicultural, multiracial church is unquestionable. Her exhortation toward that effect powerful.
Grace and Peace,
