Churches offer hollow welcomes because they don't realize that Jesus has sent the person to them to be welcomed. Churches forget to see the providence of the Holy Spirit and the pure human grit that has brought this newcomer to their doors.

Jesus is the true Tree, planted by streams of water, whose leaves do not wither
that produces fruit in its seasons.

The true Tree of Life, flanked by angels bearing not swords but words of witness.

Have decided to transition from to Narrative Lectionary. I was on the fence about it, but it just seems to be the right time.

I'm also happy that the scripture includes Mt 21:14-15, which feel more compelling than the donkey/palm part from the regular .

I started writing my two days ago. And here I am, again staring at the page (with nary a coherent thought in my head), regretting that I didn't finish it then too.

Born a king on bethlehem’s plain, this king was king by birth, yet the gift of gold that the Wise Men brought was indeed a crown. Though not with gold, we too crown Jesus king when we expect the Kingdom. When we react to our world not merely on its own terms, but on the terms of the coming Kingdom, we crown him again.

That King Herod was blissfully unaware of the changing heavens suggests that the star was not some sort of cosmic supernova. This was not a star that lit up the whole sky, not a giant comet that would have caused the camels to don their sunglasses, not an obvious harbinger for pundits to ponder. No, Herod and all Jerusalem with him were taken off guard by the words of the Wise.

Herod says, "look for the child"
He could not bring himself to say, "look for the king"
