	To praise you not only with our lips	6:42
	but also with our minds and hearts.	6:44

-	If as we worship God, we would honestly seek to be renewed	11:34
	in order to give glory to God,	11:41
	we must begin by first being honest	11:46
	about our own past sins and failures.	11:48
	Therefore let us honestly confess before God	11:55
	the things that we have done or failed to do,	11:58
	which have caused us to be less than our real selves.	12:01
	Let us pray.	12:07
	Lord, our God, you have given us every good thing,	12:10
	more blessings than we can see or comprehend,	12:15
	yet like greedy children we're always asking for more.	12:20
	More strength so that we can better impress others,	12:25
	more time so that we can spend it for ourselves,	12:30
	more freedom so that we can enjoy	12:34
	our lack of responsibility,	12:36
	more peace so that we need not worry	12:39
	about the conflicts around us.	12:42
	Help us Lord to turn our seeking away from ourselves	12:45
	and toward the world.	12:49
	We need to be consoled, to be understood, to be loved.	12:52
	And we pray, oh Lord, that we may also strive	12:58
	to console, to understand and to love all of your creation.	13:02
	May our efforts be not to increase our gifts	13:09
	but to build your kingdom.	13:13
	Amen.	13:15
	Let us continue with personal prayers of our own needs	13:17
	before God and one another.	13:22
	God almighty and ever merciful,	13:42
	grant unto us who are penitent the full pardon	13:47
	and forgiveness of all our sins.	13:53
	Give us the time and the will to amend our lives	13:58
	inpour upon each of us, the grace of your holy spirit.	14:04
	Let our joy be full this day,	14:09
	as we take hold again of life individually and together	14:13
	as a forgiven and a forgiving community.	14:18
	In Christ's name,	14:24
	amen.	14:28
	(soft music)	14:37
	(choir sings)	15:03
-	Let us hear the word of God.	19:30
	First, the lesson from the Old Testament,	19:33
	the book of Genesis chapter 12 verses one through nine.	19:36
	"Now the Lord said to Abram,	19:43
	"go from your country and your kindred	19:46
	"and your father's house to the land that I will show you.	19:49
	"And I will make of you a great nation	19:54
	"and I will bless you and make your name great,	19:56
	"so that you will be a blessing.	20:00
	"I will bless those who bless you	20:02
	"and him who curses you, I will curse.	20:05
	"And by you, all the families of the earth	20:08
	"will bless themselves.	20:11
	"So Abram went, as the Lord had told him	20:14
	"and Lot went with him.	20:18
	"Abram was 75 years old when he departed from Harran	20:21
	"and Abram took Sarah, his wife and Lot, his brother's son	20:26
	"and all their possessions, which they had gathered	20:29
	"and the persons that they had gotten in Harran.	20:32
	"And they set forth to go to the land of Canaan.	20:35
	"When they had come to the land of Canaan,	20:39
	"Abram past through the land, to the place at Shechem	20:42
	"to the Oak of Moreh.	20:46
	"At that time, the Canaanites were in the land.	20:48
	"Then the Lord appeared to Abram	20:51
	"and said to your descendants, I will give this land.	20:53
	"So he built there and altered to the Lord	20:59
	"who had appeared to him.	21:02
	"Thence he removed to the mountain on the east of Bethel	21:04
	"and pitched his tent with Bethel on the west	21:08
	"and Ai on the east.	21:11
	"And there he built an altar to the Lord	21:14
	"and called on the name of the Lord.	21:16
	"And Abram journeyed on, still going toward the Negev".	21:20
	Let the congregation stand	21:27
	for the reading of the gospel lesson.	21:29
	The gospel lesson for this day is taken from the gospel	21:37
	according to Matthew chapter 10 versus 24 through 29.	21:40
	"A disciple is not above his teacher,	21:48
	"nor a servant above his master.	21:51
	"It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher	21:55
	"and the servant like his master.	22:00
	"If they have called a master of the house Beelzebul,	22:04
	"how much more will they malign those of his household?	22:07
	"So have no fear of them, for nothing is covered	22:12
	"that will not be revealed	22:17
	"or hidden that will not be known.	22:19
	"What I tell you in the dark, utter in the light	22:22
	"and what you hear whispered, proclaim upon the housetops	22:27
	"and do not fear those who kill the body,	22:32
	"but cannot kill the soul.	22:35
	"Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.	22:37
	"Are not too sparrows sold for a penny?	22:44
	"And not one of them will fall to the ground	22:48
	"without your father's will".	22:52
	Here ends the reading of the lesson,	22:56
	may God's name be praised.	22:58
	(soft music)	23:01

-	As one voice, let us affirm our faith.	23:45
	We are not alone.	23:50
	We live in God's world.	23:52
	We believe in God who has created and is creating,	23:54
	who has come in the true man Jesus	23:59
	to reconcile and make new,	24:02
	who works in us and others by his spirit.	24:05
	We trust him.	24:10
	He calls us to be in his church, to celebrate his presence,	24:11
	to love and serve others, to seek justice and resist evil,	24:17
	to proclaim Jesus, crucified and risen,	24:23
	our judge and our hope.	24:27
	In life, in death, in life beyond death, God is with us.	24:30
	We are not alone.	24:36
	Thanks be to God.	24:38
	The Lord be with you.	24:42
-	And with your spirit.	24:44
-	Let us pray.	24:45
	Oh God, we praise you.	24:56
	We bless you.	24:58
	We worship you.	25:01
	We glorify you.	25:03
	We give thanks to you for your great glory.	25:05
	For we see your glory all around us,	25:09
	from the beauty of the flowers in the gardens	25:11
	to the force and fury of the storms.	25:15
	And we see your glory in your children,	25:19
	how beautiful you have made us.	25:22
	What hidden mystery lives in the heart of each of us,	25:26
	what moments of joy you have made us capable of,	25:31
	what wonderful love you have put in us	25:36
	when we are receptive to it and when we share it.	25:39
	Yet, oh God, we know we can be ugly.	25:44
	But even when we face our own ugliness	25:47
	we have much to be thankful for.	25:49
	For you haven't let us destroy each other yet.	25:52
	You have consistently brought good	25:57
	out of our worst mistakes.	25:59
	You have patiently used evil to teach us	26:02
	very difficult lessons and you have taken our most	26:05
	evil deed, the crucifixion of your only son, Jesus Christ,	26:09
	our Lord and made it the source of blessing and peace	26:13
	for all who turn to him.	26:21
	When we're ugly, you can make us beautiful.	26:24
	When we sin, you show us your mercy.	26:27
	When we hate you, help us to learn to care.	26:31
	When we rebel, you remain faithful and ever present	26:35
	for life, for love, for life together, for love to give	26:40
	and love to receive, for all this and much more,	26:45
	we praise you, oh God.	26:49
	Remind us, oh God	26:55
	of our place of responsibility in your world.	26:58
	Help us to receive and to make Jesus Christ,	27:03
	the Lord of our lives, to love as he loved,	27:06
	to serve as he served and to give as he gave.	27:10
	Help us to change this world into what you rather than we	27:15
	want it to be.	27:19
	And may oh God,	27:22
	the hands of Russians and Americans raised	27:25
	and joined together at the end of the track meet yesterday,	27:28
	may these hands be symbolic of our will	27:33
	and our desire to join together	27:36
	and to work for peace and for love among all persons.	27:39
	Let there be peace on earth, O God	27:45
	and let it begin with each of us.	27:48
	In the name of Jesus Christ who taught us	27:54
	and all his children, all his disciples to pray,	27:56
	we pray now.	28:00
	Our father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.	28:02
	Thy kingdom come, thy will be done	28:08
	on earth as it is in heaven.	28:11
	Give us this day, our daily brand	28:14
	and forgive us our trespasses	28:17
	as we forgive those who trespass against us	28:20
	and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.	28:23
	For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever.	28:28
	Amen, amen.	28:34
	Let me welcome you this day to Duke Chapel	28:41
	and to this service of worship of God almighty.	28:46
	May you find here inspiration for your life,	28:51
	meaning to help you as you go from this place to serve	28:56
	and to love.	28:59
	It is our privilege today to have playing at the organ,	29:02
	Dr. Skyler Robinson, professor of music	29:05
	and organist at Warren Wilson College in Swannanoa.	29:09
	And as you will notice in the bulletin,	29:13
	the program for the organ concert this afternoon	29:16
	at five o'clock, Dr. Robinson will be playing	29:19
	a special organ concert for us all.	29:22
	Please note that the time is five, rather than four,	29:26
	that has been done intentionally	29:29
	so that the chapel may have an extra hour to cool off	29:31
	later in the afternoon.	29:35
	So we hope that you will come	29:37
	and join us for this special hour of music.	29:39
	Following that there will be a carol-on recital	29:42
	by Sam Hammond.	29:44
	And this will conclude	29:46
	the Week of the Arts Festival	29:50
	in connection with the Russian USA track meet	29:53
	and what a week it has been.	29:57
	We welcome to the pulpit of Duke Chapel today,	30:00
	the Reverend John McCarter.	30:04
	It's somewhat difficult for me to introduce him	30:06
	because we are such very close friends.	30:08
	But it is my privilege	30:12
	and I'm sure it will be your privilege also to hear him	30:15
	as he proclaims for us the word of God for this day.	30:17
	John is a graduate of Duke University Undergraduate School	30:22
	and of the Divinity School,	30:25
	has served churches in Asheville and Black Mountain,	30:27
	in Charlotte, in the Western North Carolina Conference	30:30
	of the United Methodist Church.	30:32
	And is now the district superintendent	30:34
	in the Waynesville District.	30:36
	We welcome him and his wife and daughter back home.	30:38
	And John, we hear you now	30:44
	as you come to share God's word with us.	30:46
-	Psychologists tell us that it is the picture of himself	31:10
	in a child's mind	31:15
	and of a nation in the minds of its people	31:18
	that determines destiny.	31:23
	So the person you hope to become	31:28
	and the nation we would like to be	31:32
	is already a power to decide who we are.	31:36
	We cannot separate our present from our future.	31:43
	Does a new world then begin with our dreams, our visions,	31:51
	our plans?	31:58
	Surely that's an important part of its beginning.	32:01
	Just as a runner has a plan for his race,	32:08
	deciding ahead when to press and when to ease up,	32:14
	when to pour it on,	32:19
	and as my daughter, who also runs track tells me,	32:22
	when to kick it	32:26
	or as Mary Decker did yesterday when to kick it twice,	32:28
	so do we	32:34
	one way or another, have a plan by which we live our lives.	32:37
	It may not be a very adequate plan.	32:45
	It may be one with a little thought.	32:49
	We wonder aimlessly through life,	32:53
	taking the path of least resistance.	32:58
	Like the man walking along the boat dock one day,	33:02
	in his hand, a puzzle that his son had given him.	33:08
	The little cardboard kind	33:12
	that has the little metal balls that you shake and roll	33:14
	around until they fit into the eyes and nose and mouth	33:19
	of the clown pictured there.	33:24
	The man was so absorbed in his game	33:28
	that he proceeded right to the end of the dock.	33:32
	And sure enough stepped fully clothed right into the lake.	33:35
	But aren't we all too much like that?	33:44
	Absorbed in the trivia of life, missing its meanings	33:49
	and possibilities.	33:54
	Maybe that suggests something of the way we as a nation	33:57
	walk into things now and then, like a fuel crisis.	34:00
	And so many other national problems	34:06
	that we'd rather not have them brought up.	34:09
	Sometimes even the boldest dreams	34:14
	and the wisest planning are not enough.	34:16
	Can we look to our national or world leaders	34:25
	as we hope for some new and better world ahead?	34:28
	Let's not take away from the importance of the summit talks	34:35
	our president has just had	34:39
	with the leaders of the Soviet Union.	34:41
	Nor dare we take lightly the obvious diplomatic skills	34:46
	of Dr. Kissinger.	34:50
	But there are questions clouding this nation's leadership	34:55
	with which we are all too familiar.	35:00
	Who can we trust or believe anymore?	35:04
	May we hold up church leaders, for example?	35:10
	I say that we surely may be disappointed here too.	35:20
	Indeed if we look all the way back to our father	35:28
	in the faith, Abraham of old, we see a mighty man	35:31
	but we see a man who over and over again	35:37
	proved that he was not faithful to God's call and election.	35:42
	Nowhere is there evidence that Abraham	35:48
	or any other saints across the ages were faithful	35:50
	or sterling examples to be followed and emulated.	35:54
	Any careful study of great men and women	35:59
	will show that it was never through their faithfulness	36:02
	but always through the faithfulness of God	36:05
	that blessing and goodness came to his people.	36:09
	All our heroes in both church and state have feet of clay.	36:15
	They are mere men.	36:23
	The press had a story last week	36:30
	out of Chicago's Lincoln Park	36:32
	in which a young woman was reportedly struck	36:35
	on the neck with a heavy chain by a man	36:37
	she then tried to capture.	36:40
	Bleeding profusely, person after person,	36:43
	refused her cries for help.	36:48
	Joggers, bicyclists, a man reading a paper,	36:52
	a bus full of people, guards taking down a flag,	37:00
	they all ignored her pleas.	37:08
	Finally and with similarities to Jesus' story	37:11
	of the good Samaritan, the hero who came to her rescue	37:16
	turned out to be someone not on our most respected lists	37:21
	today, a politician.	37:25
	Are we a bystander people in America now?	37:32
	Are we still the land of the free and the home of the brave?	37:39
	I came across a poem that haunts me.	37:49
	To whom can I speak today?	37:58
	The gentle man has perished.	38:02
	The violent man has access to everybody.	38:05
	To whom can I speak today?	38:11
	The iniquity that smites our land,	38:15
	it has no end.	38:18
	To whom can I speak today?	38:23
	There are no righteous men.	38:27
	The earth is surrendered to criminals.	38:31
	The author?	38:40
	An unknown Egyptian who lived 4,000 years ago.	38:43
	The hopelessness that we sometimes feel	38:51
	doesn't really have much to do with the times.	38:53
	It illustrates the ageless problem of evil.	38:57
	But I want to say today that there is hope	39:04
	and it begins with you and me.	39:08
	We all have our disappointments with the way things are.	39:13
	We all have feelings about ourselves, at least I do	39:17
	and I suspect you do too	39:21
	that are very much like Charlie Brown's feelings	39:25
	as we read of his adventures in the comics strip.	39:28
	Feelings that we may never win, that we will always lose.	39:33
	Can't you see Charlie after an unfortunate baseball game	39:38
	saying, whew, 49 to nothing.	39:42
	And we were so sincere.	39:49
	We could say 192 to 184 and we tried so hard.	39:55
	But it was great.	40:05
	Do you ever stand before a group to speak	40:09
	without some feelings of inadequacy?	40:12
	I never do.	40:17
	Will I say the right thing?	40:19
	Will I make a good impression?	40:21
	Will they think I'm ridiculous?	40:24
	Each of us has doubts about himself at times.	40:29
	And it is when we recognize that and admit that it is so	40:35
	that we have made a turn and new possibilities are born.	40:41
	The way to new life and a new world is in seeing ourselves,	40:47
	really seeing ourselves as we are, our strengths,	40:52
	as well as our weaknesses.	40:57
	For that opens the possibilities of change	41:01
	for our individual lives and for our nation.	41:04
	Oh, why do we find it impossible to confess our sins	41:10
	as a people, as a nation?	41:15
	Why did we talk of peace with honor in Vietnam	41:19
	when the result was surely neither peace nor honor?	41:23
	Why is Mr. Nixon more interested in an image	41:29
	than in the truth?	41:33
	And why should we say this also	41:37
	about so many of our national leaders today?	41:39
	Let me share with you a story that Bruce Larson	41:48
	tells about himself.	41:52
	I think it sheds light on the pretense that	41:55
	we all fall into.	42:00
	He tells about being a young infantry recruit	42:05
	at Fort Benning.	42:07
	And of going on the first day there to breakfast.	42:10
	They were seated 10 men to a table, family style	42:16
	in the mess hall.	42:22
	And Larson says that he noticed something in front of him	42:25
	in a dish that looked for all the world to him,	42:28
	like cream of wheat.	42:31
	So he got a small bowl, spooned out some into it	42:37
	and then put on sugar and cream.	42:43
	And started to lift it up to take his first spoonful.	42:48
	But in that moment, a young mountain man from Georgia	42:55
	seated across the table from him said,	43:01
	say, is that the way you eat grits?	43:05
	Larson says that as a young boy growing up in Chicago	43:12
	he had heard of grits, but he had never seen them.	43:15
	Rather than to show his ignorance, however,	43:21
	he smiled and said, yeah,	43:26
	that's the way we eat grits in Chicago.	43:30
	And the mountain boy was amazed to see him	43:36
	eat grits that way.	43:39
	And he says it was awfully hard to get it down.	43:43
	Bu as he watched, he learned that the way you eat grits	43:50
	is with a little butter or maybe gravy if it's handy,	43:54
	not with cream and sugar.	43:59
	And the others seemed to enjoy it.	44:02
	Just a couple of days later, being Georgia	44:07
	even if it was in the army,	44:12
	don't you know that grits would be served again.	44:13
	And once more, he found himself seated at a table	44:19
	with that same Georgia boy across the table from him.	44:22
	He then was faced with a dilemma	44:28
	of whether he would learn the lesson that had come to him,	44:31
	how you eat grits or	44:37
	whether he would be too proud to admit his mistake.	44:41
	Once again, our hero says it didn't take long to decide.	44:48
	He reached for a bowl, spooned out the grits,	44:55
	poured on the sugar and cream	44:58
	and had a time forcing it down.	45:01
	He says, I really would rather have gone to hell	45:07
	than to have admitted that I was wrong.	45:13
	Now that's a silly little incident.	45:21
	But it shows how far I think all of us will go	45:25
	in our insistence that we are right	45:31
	when in fact we are wrong.	45:34
	And the deepest tragedy of our life	45:37
	is gathered up in that.	45:40
	We do not easily admit our mistakes.	45:43
	We refuse to face our life as it is.	45:47
	We try to fool ourselves as well as those around us.	45:52
	Therefore, we do not grow in our inner life.	45:57
	We fail to profit by the lessons that life brings us.	46:00
	Psychiatrists say that much of our emotional	46:07
	and mental illness is caused by our	46:10
	insistence that we are right.	46:14
	You know how many times as parents	46:19
	we can never see the wrong in our own children?	46:22
	Sometimes the teacher is blamed for the problems	46:26
	that come in school and that our children have.	46:29
	And so children are brought up	46:36
	who are impossible to live with,	46:38
	all because mama's little darling could never be wrong.	46:41
	But it's a mark of maturity and health to be able to admit	46:49
	to each other that we were wrong.	46:52
	It's the road to wholeness and to new life.	46:54
	Why do we hide our faults?	47:00
	It's because we have such a deep need for love and approval.	47:05
	All of us.	47:10
	We must have the love of our family and friends.	47:12
	And if they know what we're like really,	47:16
	if they know about our flaws and our weaknesses,	47:19
	they might reject us.	47:22
	So we believe.	47:25
	And so we have self righteousness and pretense	47:28
	because we are made for love.	47:33
	And in our foolish misunderstanding of reality	47:35
	we believe a coverup is necessary and we wear masks.	47:39
	We hide ourselves from one another.	47:44
	This is the picture of our lives.	47:50
	Slow to admit our mistakes and need,	47:53
	quick to see them in others and to point them out.	47:57
	A new world can really come to us	48:04
	when in the midst of facing who we are, we hear the gospel.	48:08
	And it's good news that we do not have to pretend	48:15
	that God is our father who knows us all together.	48:21
	That not even a sparrow falls to the ground	48:27
	without his knowledge and care.	48:30
	And knowing us completely,	48:33
	the gospel tells us that we are loved	48:36
	as we are, not as we might have been, not as we may become,	48:39
	but just as we are.	48:48
	In the eyes of God you are a unique and unrepeatable person.	48:52
	You are loved and accepted through his son, Jesus Christ.	48:59
	You have your creators God's I love you.	49:04
	You don't have to prove anything.	49:12
	You don't have to do anything,	49:15
	only receive and believe and accept.	49:19
	We are not called to be nice people,	49:28
	but new men and new women.	49:32
	Governments will often disappoint.	49:36
	Every day there is some dark news to report.	49:42
	But you and I are called to follow and reflect the spirit	49:49
	of one who makes all things new.	49:53
	Everywhere we accept and affirm one another,	49:59
	there, God is beginning his new world again.	50:04
	This beautiful track meet yesterday and Friday	50:11
	was a glimmer of it.	50:14
	As Soviet and American young people embraced	50:17
	and celebrated the excellence that was theirs.	50:20
	It blazes forth in its fullness from a cross	50:26
	where one reigns from that lofty height	50:33
	and says to you, and to me, I love you.	50:37
	God loves like that.	50:45
	Believe,	50:52
	accept,	50:55
	live.	50:57
	There's a new world coming.	51:01
	Let us pray.	51:09
	Father, let us, each of us, really hear the good news	51:14
	of your gospel in Jesus Christ,	51:24
	that you do care infinitely for me, for me	51:28
	and for all persons everywhere.	51:36
	So may we go out this day into that new world	51:42
	which is your kingdom for our redeemer's sake.	51:47
	Amen.	51:56

	We surrender our lives to your use	1:03:33
	to make this a better world.	1:03:37
	Show us what you would have us to do	1:03:41
	and stir us up until we do it.	1:03:45
	Amen and amen.	1:03:48
	(soft music)	1:03:57
	(choir sings)	1:04:33
-	Without bowing your head or closing your eyes,	1:08:15
	will you receive this word of commission	1:08:21
	and benediction?	1:08:24
	Go into the world and share with others	1:08:27
	the good news that God loves you and me	1:08:32
	and that Jesus Christ leads us to grace	1:08:40
	that we might live life to the fullest.	1:08:45
	And the grace of God, the love of Jesus Christ	1:08:50
	and the ever present presence of the holy spirit	1:08:57
	be with you.	1:09:02
