-	To be forgiven, our hopes to be renewed,	0:08
	our better selves to be quickened.	0:15
	Oh, thou in whom there's harmony, draws to thyself,	0:20
	and silence the discords of our lives.	0:27
	Give us all grace and strength to overcome every sin.	0:33
	Sins of resentment, deliberation,	0:38
	surprise, negligence, omission.	0:44
	Sins against thee, against our neighbor.	0:51
	Sins great, small, remembered, forgotten.	0:57
	Thou whose greatness is beyond our praise.	1:07
	Lift us up about littleness and our daily imperfections,	1:11
	send us visions of the love of that is in thee	1:17
	and of the good that may be in us, amen.	1:22
	And hear these words of assurance, of pardon,	1:31
	thus set the high and lofty one that inhabited the eternity,	1:37
	whose name is holy.	1:43
	I dwell in the high and holy place with him,	1:47
	with her also that is of a contrite and humble spirit,	1:55
	to revive the spirits of the humble	2:01
	and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.	2:04
	Therefore we have good courage.	2:10
	And now let us together offer on to God a prayer	2:15
	of thanksgiving using the Canticle number 6:2-7	2:18
	at the back of the hymnal,	2:25
	which is entitled the Song of David.	2:28
	And let us pray it responsibly.	2:34
	Bless are thy oh, Lord, the God of Israel.	2:40
	(indistinct)	2:43
-	Thy know Lord is the greatness and the power and the glory	2:46
	and the victory and the majesty.	2:50
	(indistinct)	2:54
-	Thy is the kingdom, oh Lord.	2:58
	(indistinct)	3:01
-	Both riches and honor come from the thy.	3:04
	(indistinct)	3:08
-	In thy hand are power and might.	3:10
-	In thy hand (indistinct).	3:15
-	And now we thank thee, our God.	3:20
	(indistinct)	3:23
-	Amen.	3:26
	(soft music)	3:32
	(indistinct)	4:28
-	The word of scripture is found in Mark 8:31:36	7:08
	and Hebrews 12:1-2.	7:18
	"And he began to teach them that the son of man	7:24
	must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders	7:27
	and the chief priests and the scribes, and be killed.	7:32
	And after three days rise again, and he said this plainly.	7:37
	And Peter took him and began to rebuke him,	7:43
	but turning and seeing his disciples he rebuked Peter,	7:48
	and said, "Get behind me Satan,	7:52
	for you are not on the side of God but of men."	7:55
	And he called to him, the multitude with his disciples	8:00
	and said to them, "If any man would come after me,	8:04
	let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me,	8:08
	for whoever would save His life will lose it.	8:15
	And whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospels	8:19
	will save it.	8:24
	For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world	8:26
	and forfeit his life?"	8:31
	Therefore, since we are surrounded	8:41
	by soul greater cloud of witnesses,	8:44
	let us also lay aside every weight and sin	8:48
	which clings so closely,	8:52
	and let run with perseverance the race that is set before us	8:54
	looking to Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith,	8:59
	who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross,	9:04
	despising the shame and is seated at the right hand	9:10
	of the throne of God."	9:14
	Your end of the lessons.	9:17
	(soft music)	9:20
	(indistinct)	9:29
-	The Lord be with you.	10:07
	(indistinct)	10:10
-	Let us pray.	10:11
	At this Lenten season let us offer first	10:21
	the prayer of thanksgiving for Jesus.	10:23
	All mighty God, God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ.	10:28
	We give you thanks, for thy son.	10:35
	We remember in great gratitude.	10:40
	His goodness not to be ministered unto, but to minister,	10:43
	his sympathy with suffering of every kind,	10:49
	his bravery in face of his own suffering,	10:55
	his quietness of bearing so that when reviled,	11:00
	he reviled not again,	11:06
	his steadiness purpose in keeping to his appointed task.	11:10
	His simplicity, his inner discipline.	11:16
	His serenity of spirit, his complete reliance upon thee,	11:21
	his acceptance of the cruel cross.	11:29
	His deliverance from death, his ever present spirit.	11:34
	Thanks be to thee, oh God.	11:42
	Let us offer a prayer of intercession	11:48
	for all conditions of men.	11:51
	Loving and Holy Spirit of God,	11:55
	we pray that we and all men me increasingly work together	11:59
	that thy will maybe done on earth.	12:04
	That the resources of the earth may be gathered,	12:10
	distributed and used with unselfish motives	12:14
	and scientific skill	12:19
	for the benefit of all.	12:22
	That beauty may be given to our towns	12:26
	and left to our countryside.	12:30
	That children may be finely bred and finely trained,	12:35
	that there may be open ways and peace and freedom	12:42
	for men to end of all the earth,	12:49
	that all men may learn goodwill	12:53
	through keeping thy company.	12:57
	And let us offer a prayer of supplication for ourselves	13:03
	using part of the words	13:07
	from the breastplate of Saint Patrick.	13:10
	May thy strength oh, God pilot us,	13:15
	may thy power oh, God preserve us.	13:20
	May thy wisdom oh, God protect us,	13:26
	may thy way, oh, God direct us.	13:31
	May thy shield, oh, God defend us.	13:37
	May thy (indistinct) oh, God guard us	13:42
	against the snares of evil and the temptations of the world.	13:45
	May Christ be with us, Christ before us, Christ in us,	13:51
	Christ over us.	14:00
	May thy salvation, oh Lord, God be all was ours,	14:03
	this day and forevermore.	14:08
	And let us offer a prayer of dedication.	14:13
	Our father God, by whom we live,	14:17
	and on whom our hopes are built,	14:23
	grant us ears to hear, eyes to see,	14:28
	wills to obey, hearts to love,	14:34
	then declared what thy will,	14:41
	reveal what thy will,	14:45
	command what thy will, demand what thy will.	14:48
	And let each one numbers answer,	14:57
	speak Lord for thy servant Peter.	15:01
	And now as our savior Christ taught us,	15:08
	we humbly pray together saying our father who art in heaven,	15:10
	hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come.	15:18
	Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.	15:22
	Give us this day our daily bread	15:27
	and forgive us our trespasses	15:30
	as we forgive those who trespass against us,	15:33
	and lead us not into temptation,	15:37
	but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom	15:40
	and the power and the glory forever, amen.	15:44
-	And it came to pass,	16:20
	when the time was come that he should be received up.	16:22
	He steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.	16:27
	How does one preach?	16:36
	What does one say?	16:38
	When unsure that listeners want to hear this message?	16:42
	Indeed, when he too would like to back away from it.	16:48
	with Kierkegaard, he might even propose,	16:56
	let us collect all the New Testaments that are in existence.	17:01
	Let us carry them out to an open place or up on a mountain.	17:06
	And then while we all kneel down and let someone address God	17:11
	in this fashion, take this book back again.	17:14
	We man, such as we are now	17:20
	are not good at dealing with a thing like this,	17:22
	it only makes us unhappy.	17:26
	For this is Passion Sunday in the Christian year.	17:31
	And its meaning has already been signaled	17:37
	by the scripture readings	17:40
	in which the early church interpreted Jesus steadfast	17:42
	setting of his face towards Jerusalem,	17:47
	and its imminent conflicts with religious	17:50
	and political establishment,	17:55
	and his crucial suffering and his call to his disciples,	17:58
	not to deter, but to follow him,	18:05
	in self-denying bearing of the cross.	18:09
	The writer to the Hebrews,	18:15
	reinforced this summons with a roll call of ancient heroes	18:17
	of the faith and focused it on the present.	18:21
	Therefore, since we are surrounded	18:26
	by so great a cloud of witnesses,	18:28
	let us also lay aside every weight and sin,	18:32
	which clings so closely,	18:37
	and let us run with perseverance the race	18:39
	that is set before us, looking to Jesus,	18:42
	the pioneer and perfecter of our faith,	18:46
	who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross	18:50
	despising the shame and is seated at the right hand of God.	18:56
	Then the invocation for Passion Sunday	19:02
	presumes our responding prayer,	19:06
	For bid, oh God,	19:11
	that we should forget amid our earthly comforts,	19:12
	the pains and mortal anguish that our Lord Jesus endured	19:16
	for our salvation.	19:20
	Grant us this day, a true vision of all that he suffered,	19:23
	his betrayal, his lonely agony,	19:27
	his false trial, he's mocking and scourging,	19:32
	the torture of the cross	19:36
	that remembering his sufferings and death,	19:39
	we may give ourselves holy to thee,	19:42
	through the same Jesus Christ,	19:45
	our only Lord and savior, amen.	19:47
	Are we really ready to pray that prayer?	19:53
	To enter into such a somber and demanding covenant?	19:59
	If this is what the New Testament demands of us,	20:05
	perhaps we all are on the point of saying,	20:10
	"Take this book back again, we men such as we are	20:13
	are not good at dealing with a thing like this,	20:17
	it only makes us unhappy."	20:20
	Here's the gospel, the good news,	20:23
	really bad news after all?	20:27
	Can we discover or have discovered to us	20:34
	another aspect of Jesus and his message	20:41
	that is good news, news in the sense of the unexpected.	20:46
	Good in the sense of making us joyful, happy,	20:52
	Robert Louis Stevenson in quite another mood	20:57
	than Kierkegaard, once remarked	21:00
	that he sometimes wished he had never read the New Testament	21:03
	so that he might come to it with a freshness	21:07
	that would make him conscious	21:09
	of its amazing significance and quality.	21:11
	Some of you recently experienced through that powerful film,	21:17
	"The Gospel of St. Matthew",	21:21
	what it meant to an Italian Marxist	21:24
	to encounter that strange book	21:29
	and be tellingly encountered engaged by Jesus.	21:32
	Indeed, some of our younger generation	21:41
	for whom our generation has diluted or domesticated	21:44
	or obscured that good news had begun to turn on	21:51
	to the ever surprising inviting winsome word and way	21:56
	and spirit of Jesus who offers and expresses new joy,	22:02
	gladness, freshness, freedom, spontaneity,	22:09
	authenticity of life.	22:15
	Does that turn you on?	22:18
	Let us recall for a moment,	22:21
	the personality and power reflected	22:23
	in the early church testimonies to its master and Lauren,	22:26
	insensitive New Testament scholar, John Knox,	22:32
	reviews the gospel stories and gathers for us the impression	22:37
	of a man of incomparable, moral insight,	22:42
	understanding and imagination.	22:48
	Of singular, moral purpose, and integrity	22:51
	of extraordinary moral courage and ardor,	22:56
	of intense devotion to duty, of joyous trust in God.	23:00
	A person of surpassing charm and winsomeness.	23:06
	Loved by many and loved intensely	23:11
	for the genuineness, completeness,	23:15
	depth and ardor of his humanity.	23:18
	With a warm sense of being a man of belonging to the world	23:22
	of participating in his life,	23:26
	he took life seriously, but not solidly.	23:29
	He enjoyed nature, children, human companionship.	23:35
	He saw life with fidelity, freshness and humor.	23:41
	He tended to erase the line that separated the sacred	23:46
	from the human, indeed extended the sacred	23:49
	to include all it was truly under centrally human.	23:54
	The other side of his lovableness John Knox goes on,	24:00
	was his own exceptional capacity for love,	24:06
	for warmth affection, deep enjoyment to fellowship	24:12
	with all sorts and conditions of man.	24:16
	A searching love for the lost, the sin, the weak,	24:20
	and indignant love against what hurt them.	24:26
	A forgiving love for those who persecuted	24:30
	and despitefully used him, says Knox.	24:34
	An harden person of singular, moral, purity and integrity,	24:39
	for whose love the whole world was too small.	24:45
	No wonder men loved him in return with supreme devotion.	24:50
	Of course, words even these words are never enough.	24:57
	It takes a personal encounter with his spirit	25:05
	in the New Testament and in the continuing church,	25:10
	in personal relationships now, even today.	25:16
	But these words ain't enough to suggest	25:21
	what he's turned us on down through the ages	25:24
	and in all the time.	25:27
	So in that grace and strength and truth,	25:31
	Jesus won the hearing and the following	25:38
	of stalwart men and weak,	25:40
	of developed scholars and the insightful and learned.	25:45
	Of devoted women and profligate one,	25:50
	of the burden, the poor, the aged, the children of all ages.	25:54
	The multitudes and the lonely individuals.	26:03
	He challenged them to fullness of life.	26:07
	Involve their strengths, enhance their selfhood,	26:10
	honor their freedom, redeem their weakness,	26:15
	forgive their failures.	26:20
	He taught not by coercive authority,	26:23
	but by appeal to their recognition,	26:27
	to the insights in their own experience,	26:30
	to their relationships with their fellow man	26:35
	and God at his world.	26:40
	He invited them to blessness, freedom, joy and devotion,	26:42
	and in so doing,	26:50
	he disclosed the eternal God who was manifest in his life	26:52
	and ministry and death.	26:59
	What is our response to such a joyful, liberating ministry?	27:04
	More positive than to the more somber demanding call	27:12
	of the steadfast Jesus facing the cross.	27:18
	This sermon title, the spontaneity and steadfastness	27:24
	of Jesus Christ enlisted from one of the younger generation	27:28
	and agreeing accent on spontaneity,	27:35
	but some reservation over imperative to steadfastness.	27:40
	Perhaps it is one of the perennial services of youth	27:46
	to free things up when their elders	27:51
	have anxiously closed down the very freedoms	27:55
	which our individualistic and hedonistic pleasure	27:58
	seeking Western culture exalts.	28:04
	You remember (indistinct) searching	28:09
	and classic exploration of this theme of freedom?	28:15
	In his story of Jesus before the grand inquisitor.	28:20
	The returning Jesus putting the dungeon	28:26
	at the grand inquisitor's order	28:31
	is encountered there and accused of not loving men enough	28:35
	because he expected too much of them,	28:44
	because when tempted in the wilderness by that dread spirit,	28:48
	he refused to coerce or manipulate man	28:55
	by miracle, mystery and authority,	29:01
	he honored their freedom too high,	29:08
	but the church had overcome his era	29:12
	and given the masses the control they needed.	29:16
	In recalling this classic story,	29:23
	I'm not commenting on that great church,	29:26
	which had one of its low points	29:32
	at the time of the inquisition.	29:36
	I'm rather thinking as you must be of the tendency	29:40
	and the human nature and human institutions to do the same,	29:46
	to abrogate freedom, to distrust it,	29:52
	to resort to rigid external control,	29:58
	moralistic pressures for conformity,	30:02
	mastery through dependence and other strategies	30:07
	of the fearful before their own,	30:12
	our own and others freedom,	30:16
	no wonder youth must overact at times,	30:20
	this process of liberation from throttling authority.	30:24
	Sometimes it must look to them as if a Christian	30:31
	is defined as one who wants to prevent others	30:34
	from having any fun.	30:37
	Yeah, true freedom, spontaneity,	30:42
	maybe as much in danger from the excesses of its devotees	30:49
	as from the restraints of the tired holsters,	30:55
	that picture of the grand inquisitor before Jesus	31:02
	and their discussion of freedom is not the whole story.	31:09
	Jesus could trust men's freedom,	31:16
	if more than just human nature was taken into account.	31:21
	If men could be one to rise above	31:28
	their individualistic self seeking	31:31
	to transformation of voltage,	31:36
	to a new kind of wanting,	31:41
	to a freedom in devotion to God and others, not self.	31:45
	Edwin Markham prophet for the social concerns	31:54
	and Christian faith my generation,	32:00
	left us this quatrain about Jesus.	32:03
	Why does he make our hearts so strangely still?	32:07
	Why stands he forced so stately and so tall,	32:12
	because he has no self to serve,	32:17
	no will that does not seek the welfare of the all.	32:21
	And Martin Luther summed up Christian freedom	32:27
	in two sentences,	32:31
	a Christian man is a perfectly free Lord of all,	32:34
	subject to none.	32:39
	A Christian man is a perfectly dutiful servant of all,	32:42
	subject to all.	32:48
	And this them one can hear Dietrich Bonhoeffer	32:52
	saying it for all time,	32:56
	Jesus is the man for others.	32:58
	The essence of his being and of our being	33:04
	and of the churches being, is being for others.	33:10
	So is the church, truly the church	33:17
	only when it is there for other.	33:21
	What this comes to is a bringing closer together,	33:29
	of those themes of spontaneity or freedom,	33:33
	and steadfastness or resolution,	33:38
	or a finding life in giving it.	33:43
	We've been talking in terms of abstractions largely,	33:51
	perhaps we can become a little more concrete	33:57
	by remembering at least one embodiment of this spirit	34:00
	and catching up the prayer that represented his spirit.	34:07
	750 years ago, St. Francis of Assisi caught up in his life,	34:13
	the themes of our meditation this morning.	34:23
	The steadfastness and self-giving devotion of Jesus	34:26
	and of those who follow him,	34:32
	but the joy involve of the man for others	34:34
	and his discovery of true life.	34:40
	Caught up by the same text we read this morning,	34:47
	Francis gave up his comfortable circumstances and easy way	34:52
	for that remarkable investment of his life	34:58
	in the life of others,	35:02
	that is in shrine,	35:05
	not only in the great Franciscan order,	35:06
	but in this prayer.	35:09
	Oh Lord, our Christ may we have thy mind and thy spirit,	35:13
	make us instruments of thy peace,	35:20
	where there is hatred let us soul love,	35:25
	where there is injury, pardon,	35:30
	where there is discord, union.	35:34
	Where there is doubt, faith,	35:38
	where there is despair, hope,	35:41
	where there is darkness, light,	35:45
	where there is sadness, joy.	35:48
	Oh, divine master grant that we may not so much seek	35:52
	to be consoled as to console,	35:56
	to be understood as to understand,	36:00
	to be loved as to love,	36:04
	for it is in giving that we receive,	36:07
	it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,	36:10
	and is it in dying that we are born to eternal life, amen.	36:14
	So prayed St. Francis.	36:19
	Is it possible for us to pray that prayer?	36:23
	or is this one of those rare surfacings	36:32
	in the long history of the church,	36:37
	of that bullion spirit of Jesus Christ,	36:40
	seldom seen, little seen, little effective.	36:43
	If this were true, we would disparity,	36:52
	but would you let me refresh my spirit and perhaps yours	36:56
	by recalling some more recent instances than 750 years ago.	37:01
	And perhaps it's a good strategy to go some distance	37:08
	from Durham and think of people we cannot name.	37:12
	So I will call to instance,	37:17
	several people I met during a trip in Latin America.	37:21
	Here was the Roman Catholic Franciscan lay brother	37:27
	who joyously and sensitively wandered around the streets	37:35
	of the Nicaraguan Town and played with the youngsters	37:42
	and visited the aged,	37:48
	and bury the dead, and brought healing to the sick,	37:52
	and joy to those he met, a Christian brother.	38:00
	He was a retired but not so retired missionary nurse	38:09
	past 75,	38:17
	who 50 years ago was riding mule back over the mountains,	38:20
	up through eight and 9,000 feet	38:26
	to serve as a nurse,	38:31
	to people who had no other recourse in their illness,	38:34
	and no long past retirement	38:39
	and living in a kind of glorious sunset period of her life.	38:42
	She's tutoring little children	38:50
	and bathing and caring for aged people.	38:53
	And here was a young pastor,	39:00
	a (indistinct) India whose language I couldn't understand,	39:04
	but whose spirit I could not miss.	39:11
	As he graciously, encouragingly lovingly worked	39:15
	with youngsters and gathered boys around.	39:22
	As he preached and taught with sensitivity	39:27
	and genuine communication of a spirit	39:35
	that went beyond the words of the language	39:40
	I did not know.	39:44
	Or here was a postman from this country	39:48
	taking a month's accumulated vacation	39:55
	to fly down to a distant mission field,	39:59
	to spend his time and glad giving of service	40:04
	in building a new clinic for the hospital.	40:08
	And then here was a letter just this week	40:17
	from one of our students in a distance city	40:22
	who had discovered more than ever before the vitality,	40:28
	the power and the joy	40:34
	of a ministering Christian congregation,	40:38
	where all are a part of one another and of their Lord	40:42
	and the body of Christ is real in that community.	40:47
	Not only for the members of the body,	40:52
	but for those it serves.	40:55
	These are few among many possible instances	40:59
	of the flowering of that spirit in all time.	41:05
	And if you and I could search our hearts	41:10
	and know the spirit of those sitting next to us in the Pune,	41:14
	undoubtedly, you would find there too.	41:20
	Some yearning, some deep will to be like that,	41:24
	bound and limited, held back	41:35
	by our fearful and anxious resistances,	41:40
	tutored in the selfish ways of our world and our culture	41:48
	and having plenty of talent for inventing such ways	41:56
	even on tutoring, we nevertheless	42:00
	or somehow leave hold off by that spirit.	42:04
	Indeed, to test that fact,	42:11
	suppose we were to take this prayer of St. Francis	42:15
	read a moment ago and try revision,	42:18
	let us first try to revise it in terms	42:24
	of an egoistic pleasure seeking person.	42:28
	And so we begin, oh Lord our Christ,	42:38
	may we have thy mind and thy spirit,	42:41
	make us instruments of thy peace,	42:47
	where there is hatred, let us sow what?	42:52
	Sternness, rejection, control.	42:59
	Where there is injury, let us sow what?	43:06
	Squelching, put down, resistance.	43:12
	Where there is discord, what?	43:20
	Separation, alienation.	43:25
	Well, you see it doesn't work.	43:29
	We can't pray that prayer,	43:32
	in an egocentric way.	43:38
	Perhaps we could shift just a little	43:41
	and propose it with a subtler egoism.	43:44
	Where there is hatred, let us sow kind of understanding	43:52
	that credit's our ability to bring rapport.	44:00
	Where there is injury let us do something	44:07
	that will make people value our help.	44:11
	Where are there is discord,	44:17
	let us invite a reorientation toward us	44:21
	as centers of power.	44:27
	Where are there is doubt,	44:30
	let us give the word on our authority	44:33
	that doesn't work either, doesn't it?	44:39
	This subtler egoism to which we often retreat	44:42
	when afraid of its stark or brand is not what we wanted.	44:48
	Indeed do we not come back in our heart of hearts	44:54
	to the aspiration represented	45:01
	in this Passion Sunday theme of the steadfastness	45:04
	and the spontaneity of Jesus Christ,	45:10
	or to it's cropping out in this prayer Francis,	45:15
	let us again, pray.	45:20
	Oh Lord our Christ,	45:23
	may we have thy mind and thy spirit,	45:26
	make us instruments of thy peace.	45:29
	Where there is hatred let us sow love,	45:32
	where there is injury, pardon.	45:36
	Where there's discord, union.	45:39
	Where there is doubt, faith.	45:42
	Where there is despair, hope.	45:45
	Where there is darkness, light.	45:48
	Where there is sadness, joy, amen.	45:51
	(soft music)	45:58
	(indistinct)	46:32
	(soft music)	49:15
	(indistinct)	50:36
	(soft music)	53:55
-	Oh God, father of all mercies	55:14
	receive this offering which we present to thee	55:18
	as part of our worship.	55:22
	May these gifts be the symbol of our consecration unto thee	55:25
	and to thy son, Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.	55:30
	Now onto God's gracious, mercy and protection	55:41
	do I commit you,	55:44
	may the blessing of God come upon you abundantly,	55:47
	may he keep you strong and tranquil	55:52
	in the truth of his promises through Jesus Christ our Lord.	55:56
	(soft music)	56:03
	(bell dings)	56:34
	(soft music)	56:55
