-	Brothers and sisters of The Household of Faith,	13:11
	the scriptures remind us that all have sinned	13:15
	and come short of the glory of God.	13:19
	Therefore, a lot of us join together	13:23
	in our common prayer of confession.	13:25
-	Oh God, who gives us life	13:29
	that we might live freely in this world.	13:33
	The nearer we come to an understanding of who you are,	13:37
	we are more keenly aware of our failure	13:42
	to be your faithful children in this world.	13:45
	We should be kneeling to show our deep regret	13:50
	for the failure to be what we might have been	13:54
	and could have been.	13:58
	For living only for ourselves	14:01
	unconcerned for those about us in the university,	14:04
	at work, at play,	14:09
	unaware of the lonely,	14:12
	the discouraged, and those in despair.	14:14
	For the greed which took everything	14:19
	and never uttered a word of thanks.	14:22
	For the spirit which demanded too much	14:26
	and gave too little.	14:29
	For our lack of loving our neighbors	14:32
	in ways that they knew it.	14:35
	For not actively seeking justice	14:38
	and equality for all persons.	14:41
	For disloyalties which shame us	14:44
	when we think of them.	14:48
	Forgive us, oh Lord.	14:50
	Forgive us we pray.	14:52
	Make us sensitive to the needs of others	14:55
	and sensitive to you and your forgiving love.	14:59
	We pray in the spirit of Jesus, the Christ.	15:04
-	The Lord is gracious and merciful,	15:28
	slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.	15:32
	Jesus said the one who comes to me,	15:37
	I will not cast out.	15:39
	If we confess our sins,	15:43
	God is faithful and just	15:46
	and will forgive our sins	15:49
	and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.	15:51
	For his sake, your sins are forgiven.	15:56
	(orchestra music)	16:08
	(choral music)	16:35
-	The old Testament lesson is taken	19:14
	from the first chapter of Genesis.	19:16
	So, God created man in his own image.	19:20
	In the image of God he created him.	19:24
	Male and female he created them	19:28
	and God blessed them.	19:31
	And God said to them,	19:33
	be fruitful and multiply	19:34
	and fill the earth and subdue it	19:37
	and have dominion over the fish of the sea	19:39
	and over the verge of the air,	19:42
	and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.	19:45
	The epistle lesson is from the 12th chapter of Romans.	19:51
	I appeal to you therefore brethren by the mercies of God,	19:57
	to present your bodies as a living sacrifice	20:01
	holy and acceptable to God,	20:04
	which is your spiritual worship.	20:07
	Do not be conformed to this world	20:11
	but be transformed by the renewal of your mind	20:13
	that you may prove what is the will of God,	20:18
	which is good and acceptable and perfect.	20:21
	For by the grace given to me,	20:27
	I bet every one among you not to think of himself	20:28
	more highly than he ought to think,	20:32
	but to think with sober judgment	20:36
	each according to the measure of faith	20:39
	which God has assigned to him.	20:41
	For as in one body we many members	20:45
	and all the members do not have the same function.	20:49
	So we, though many, are one body in Christ	20:52
	and individually members one of another.	20:57
	Having gifts that differ according to the grace	21:01
	given to us, let us use them.	21:03
	If prophecy in proportion to our faith,	21:06
	if service in our serving,	21:11
	he who teaches in his teaching,	21:15
	he who exhorts in his exaltation.	21:18
	He who contributes in liberality.	21:22
	He who gives aid with zeal.	21:26
	He who does acts of mercy with cheerfulness.	21:29
	Will the congregation please rise	21:34
	for the reading of the gospel.	21:36
	The gospel lesson comes from Luke.	21:42
	"And he came to Nazareth where he had been brought up	21:49
	and he went to the synagogue	21:53
	as his custom was on the Sabbath day.	21:55
	And he stood up to read,	21:59
	and there was given to him the book of the prophet Isaiah.	22:01
	He opened the book and found the place	22:05
	where it was written,	22:07
	"The spirit of the Lord is upon me	22:09
	because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor.	22:13
	He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives	22:17
	and recovering of sight to the blind.	22:22
	To set at Liberty those who are oppressed,	22:25
	to proclaim the acceptable year of our Lord."	22:28
	And he closed the book and gave it back to the attendant	22:33
	and sat down.	22:35
	And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed upon him.	22:37
	And he began to say to them,	22:42
	"Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing"."	22:45
	May God at his blessing to this reading of his word.	22:50
	Amen.	22:53
	(choral music)	22:56
-	Let us affirm what we believe.	23:41
-	We believe in God who has created and is creating,	23:45
	who has come in the truly human Jesus	23:50
	to reconcile and make new.	23:54
	Who works in us and others by the spirit.	23:57
	We trust God who calls us to be the church,	24:01
	to celebrate life and its fullness.	24:06
	To love and serve others.	24:09
	To seek justice and resist evil.	24:12
	To proclaim Jesus crucified and risen,	24:16
	our judge and our hope.	24:20
	In life,	24:23
	in death,	24:24
	in life beyond death,	24:25
	God is with us.	24:28
	We are not alone.	24:30
	Thanks be to God.	24:32
-	The Lord be with you.	24:35
-	And with your spirit.	24:37
-	Let us pray.	24:39
	Let us offer unto God our prayers of thanksgiving.	24:53
	We give thanks oh Lord our Lord,	24:59
	that you have taken into your hands	25:03
	our fail and vulnerable destinies.	25:05
	No longer are our times and the hands	25:09
	of a mysterious and unknown source,	25:12
	but in a powerful,	25:16
	loving,	25:18
	redeeming,	25:20
	and compassionate God.	25:21
	In our moment of abandonment,	25:25
	on the threshold of frustration and ultimate despair,	25:28
	in the midst of our distraction	25:33
	with penultimate and ephemeral joys,	25:34
	you have not awaited our turn toward you,	25:38
	but you turned instead to us.	25:43
	We are of all people most blessed.	25:47
	Thanks be to you that we are yours and you are ours.	25:51
	We thank you too that you have given us	25:57
	to Duke University and Duke University to us,	26:00
	if only for a time.	26:04
	For the immense expanse of material and personal resources	26:08
	that intersect here in this moment of history,	26:12
	we give thanks and praise.	26:15
	For the labors of those past	26:18
	who prepared are coming,	26:21
	and for the industry of those present,	26:23
	who sustain and nourish our presence,	26:25
	both faculty and students,	26:28
	administrative, housekeeping,	26:31
	and maintenance staff,	26:34
	we are also profoundly thankful.	26:35
	We marvel at the magnitude of your gift	26:39
	called Duke University,	26:42
	both past and present.	26:44
	Let us offer unto God our prayers of intercession.	26:49
	Lord you have moved decisively in our lives.	26:55
	We pray you move also powerfully in the lives	27:00
	of the American masses in our time.	27:03
	We pray for the extension of your worship	27:07
	throughout the land.	27:10
	Keep your church faithful in great things and small.	27:13
	Rise up a prophetic clergy inspired by	27:18
	and inspiring toward a bold and outspoken laity.	27:23
	Break the power of institutional lethargy and inflexibility	27:28
	and pour forth a recreating and renewing spirit to cleanse,	27:33
	to direct, and to make new.	27:39
	We pray for a faithfulness throughout the church.	27:44
	For a worship of you in spirit and in truth,	27:48
	that the church may show forth thy praise	27:52
	throughout the land	27:55
	in the most squalid central city,	27:58
	as well as the most posh suburban ghetto.	28:01
	We pray especially Lord for our place in our time	28:06
	called Duke University.	28:10
	Forbid that we should squander your gift of this place	28:14
	in these months and days.	28:17
	As faculty and administrators help us to honor truth	28:22
	and our students over success oriented research	28:26
	and strategic gamesmanship.	28:29
	Help us to find thy word in the words,	28:34
	thy saving compassion in our relationships.	28:38
	As students help us to multiply the gifts presented	28:43
	by the leisure of thought and study.	28:47
	Help us to find excitement in study.	28:52
	Free us to subject ourselves,	28:56
	our heritage and commitments	28:59
	to the searing light of your truth.	29:01
	Endor us with visions of our life together	29:05
	which will enhance the integrity of our person	29:10
	and enable the character of our community	29:13
	that our common life may reflect at least a portion	29:17
	of your glory.	29:22
	Help us Lord in all things in this university	29:25
	to keep you ever before us,	29:28
	that we like you may be unmoved	29:31
	in our pursuit of your eternal life.	29:33
	We lift our prayer in the name of him who is the way,	29:37
	the truth and the light,	29:42
	our Lord and savior,	29:45
	even Jesus of Nazareth who taught us to pray saying,	29:46
	Our father who art in heaven,	29:51
	hallowed be thy name,	29:54
	thy kingdom come,	29:57
	thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.	29:59
	Give us this day our daily bread	30:04
	and forgive us our trespasses,	30:07
	as we forgive those who trespass against us	30:10
	and lead us not into temptation,	30:14
	but deliver us from evil.	30:17
	For thine is the kingdom,	30:19
	the power and the glory forever.	30:21
-	In the name of God in whose image we're created.	30:36
	Amen.	30:41
	Saturday a week ago,	30:43
	I walked across this campus when it was deserted	30:45
	except for a few guests gathering	30:49
	for a wedding here at the chapel	30:52
	and a few students here at Daya.	30:55
	Seldom have I seen the campus,	30:58
	where the university was at full session	31:00
	and there were so few people around.	31:04
	It meant that as I walked from here to the donut shop,	31:07
	I could see the millions of announcements	31:12
	stuck on every conceivable place	31:15
	and some inconceivable places.	31:18
	So many that I was discouraged from any attempt	31:22
	to try to sort out the opportunities	31:27
	which were being offered to us.	31:31
	This is what some of you must feel like	31:35
	when you start making your vocational decisions.	31:39
	Many visions and voices are calling to you saying,	31:44
	"Here's an urgent need".	31:50
	You have a voice which you should share	31:52
	with the whole world.	31:55
	The medical profession needs people like you	31:58
	with your concern for persons at your scientific competence.	32:01
	Law is the best way	32:07
	you could bring about lasting social change.	32:09
	You ought to be a preacher like your dad	32:13
	and on and on and on.	32:16
	These voices come to you.	32:18
	Are you aware of the voices which are helping you	32:22
	choose your major?	32:29
	Are you aware of the voices	32:31
	which are influencing your decision	32:35
	for your vocation?	32:39
	Some of these voices may come from the expectations	32:42
	of your parents	32:46
	or your husband or your wife.	32:50
	Some may come from the glamor and the vision of money,	32:54
	of power,	33:00
	of prestige,	33:02
	or the call of compassion	33:04
	to respond to a specific human need.	33:07
	Or the word from your vocational counselors saying,	33:12
	"You have many choices.	33:17
	You could be a great mechanic	33:19
	or minister	33:22
	or interior decorator."	33:23
	Now, if all of these voices were saying the same thing,	33:26
	there'd be no problem.	33:29
	But this doesn't happen.	33:31
	What will you do with your life?	33:36
	What is so important to you	33:39
	that you will give yourself to it?	33:42
	Give your time,	33:46
	your energy and your talents to this important calls.	33:47
	These are lifetime questions.	33:53
	They are always with us.	33:58
	We answered them now,	34:01
	but we will ask them again and again and again.	34:03
	The next answer may be the same as the one we give now,	34:09
	but it may not be.	34:14
	That's all right.	34:17
	You change and the world changes.	34:18
	Today I want to try to sort out	34:24
	some of the voices and visions which come to us	34:26
	as we try to answer the vocational question.	34:31
	First, voices from the Bible.	34:36
	From Genesis we heard,	34:40
	that we were created in the image of God.	34:42
	Blessed and then given responsibility to have dominion	34:46
	over the non-human dimensions of our world.	34:52
	To be created in the image of God,	34:58
	means we have been given freedom	35:00
	and also have been given responsibility.	35:03
	We are created beings,	35:08
	creatures with the limitations,	35:12
	but we also have been given freedom and responsibility.	35:15
	If we had read further in Genesis,	35:22
	we would have heard this story	35:25
	which describes our living in a world	35:27
	which bears the mark of our freedom.	35:30
	Our world is not a garden of Eden	35:34
	with no decisions to make,	35:38
	no pain,	35:40
	no unfulfilled needs,	35:41
	but is one in which we and the generations after us,	35:44
	benefit and suffer as a result of our use	35:51
	and our misuse of our freedom.	35:56
	And because of this,	36:00
	our work and the world will be a struggle.	36:02
	The garden we live in is not Eden,	36:07
	but one that has briars and thorns,	36:11
	brokenness and pain.	36:14
	And our next scripture lesson read,	36:19
	from Paul's letter to the roman,	36:21
	Paul was writing to those who had been arguing over	36:24
	which responsibility is most important.	36:28
	Teaching or preaching or feeding the hungry.	36:31
	Paul uses the image of the body	36:36
	for all parts are equally important.	36:39
	While the letter was written about work	36:43
	within the Christian community,	36:46
	it is applicable to all our work.	36:49
	We are called to present ourselves and our gifts to God.	36:53
	We are called not to think more highly of ourselves	36:59
	than we should.	37:03
	Not to think that we are better than our neighbors,	37:05
	for we are all important parts of a single body.	37:09
	The different gifts and different functions,	37:13
	being equally important.	37:17
	What a radical voice this is	37:21
	and our world so full of important	37:24
	and unimportant jobs.	37:28
	It's easy when we are here together and worship.	37:31
	To accord full respect and dignity and value to our work,	37:35
	which is essential to our living in this world.	37:42
	We can say that the work of a secretary,	37:46
	is as valuable and important as the work of the person	37:49
	who needs a secretary.	37:53
	We can say that the person whose work is to clean houses	37:57
	or cook or dispose of our garbage,	38:03
	whether by personal choice	38:07
	or because they had no choice,	38:09
	that this work is as important	38:12
	as the work of those people,	38:16
	who are freed from these jobs	38:19
	in order that they can care for the sick or teach	38:22
	or clean up the mess we have made of this world.	38:27
	We can say this in worship but it is to remember,	38:31
	when we move around in our world	38:37
	in which certain people and certain jobs and professions	38:41
	are affirmed by prestige and high salaries	38:45
	and other ways by which we accord more value	38:49
	to certain people and jobs.	38:54
	And we in this university community	38:58
	are keenly aware,	39:03
	that we have been given much.	39:05
	That we are an elite group.	39:08
	That we have opportunities and choices for our life work	39:12
	that many people cannot even imagine.	39:18
	And so we recall Jesus's words	39:23
	to those to whom much has been given,	39:27
	much will be expected.	39:32
	There when Jesus was asked,	39:36
	what was the most important commandment?	39:38
	He responded,	39:40
	"Love God and love your neighbor as yourself".	39:42
	Much of Jesus' work was helping us understand	39:48
	what it means to love our neighbor,	39:53
	the one indeed,	39:57
	in specific ways and not in general	40:00
	and theoretical ways.	40:03
	This vision completes the picture,	40:07
	which was begun in Genesis.	40:10
	We have been given responsibility to have dominion	40:13
	over all of creation with the exception	40:16
	of our brothers and our sisters.	40:21
	Our relationship and our responsibility	40:24
	to our brothers and our sisters,	40:27
	is to love and care for them as we do ourselves.	40:30
	The gospel lesson reported Jesus reading from Isaiah	40:37
	at the beginning of his public ministry	40:41
	after he had spent time in the wilderness,	40:45
	deciding on the form of his public work.	40:48
	"God has anointed me to bring good news to the poor,	40:52
	release to the prisoners,	40:58
	to give sight to the blind,	41:01
	to let the broken victims go free."	41:04
	And many of you in deciding what will be your work,	41:10
	are looking at such issues of critical human need	41:14
	in relation to your interest and your ability.	41:18
	You're asking,	41:24
	what are the most important task	41:25
	which need to be done in this world	41:28
	to make and human life human?	41:31
	Now, here are some implications we can draw	41:38
	from these biblical voices.	41:40
	We can be responsible to God in any work we do,	41:43
	if it is caring for our neighbor or the world.	41:50
	It may be that this is the only way	41:56
	or at least the most important way,	42:00
	that God works in our world.	42:02
	That God cares for us.	42:05
	This makes our choice of work,	42:08
	a very important decision.	42:11
	But one we can make with ease,	42:15
	if we also affirm that we are continuing God's work	42:19
	and we are not left alone.	42:24
	God is working through us,	42:29
	supporting us,	42:32
	guiding us and even healing us,	42:34
	when we get stuck by the briars and thorns	42:38
	we encounter in our work.	42:42
	And there is no work,	42:45
	not even work within the church,	42:48
	especially not work within the church,	42:50
	which does not have its briars and its thorns.	42:53
	Don't search for vocation in the garden of Eden.	42:57
	This is not where we live.	43:02
	Such an affirmation is freeing and liberating,	43:05
	if we believe that we are not totally	43:09
	and solely responsible for the whole world.	43:12
	This responsibility is God's,	43:16
	but is shared with us.	43:20
	Such assurance does not remove the destructiveness,	43:22
	of our irresponsibility	43:27
	but it provides us a basis for hope.	43:29
	God has the last word.	43:33
	There will be a new heaven and a new earth.	43:36
	Such assurance frees us to make decisions	43:41
	and to take risks to fold our tent and move on.	43:45
	Now, these biblical voices and visions,	43:52
	give us a context to answer some of the questions	43:54
	when we start deciding what form our work will take.	43:58
	And they fall on the basis of our experience,	44:02
	which we share with one another.	44:06
	I chose, and some of you may be surprised,	44:10
	but I chose home economics as a major in college	44:13
	because I wanted to help people have a better life,	44:17
	have a more nutritious diet.	44:21
	I was being obedient to God	44:24
	and I still can affirm that this was a responsible choice.	44:27
	But after one year of work,	44:32
	I discovered that my interest and my energies,	44:34
	the voice within me kept leading me	44:38
	to find my work within the church.	44:41
	So I folded my tent.	44:44
	I went back to study in a school of theology.	44:47
	Now, either work offered for me an opportunity	44:51
	to respond to God's call to care for my neighbor.	44:55
	The difference was that I was claimed,	45:00
	caught up and could give myself in one work	45:03
	in a way that I could not in the other.	45:07
	Now there're people whose story is the reverse of this.	45:11
	They started within work in the church	45:15
	and moved into a so-called secular work,	45:18
	where they were more able to be responsible	45:22
	to what they knew God was calling them to do.	45:24
	This may happen within a year or 10 years.	45:30
	Now, once we decide a student ask,	45:35
	what happens if the work which uses your talents,	45:39
	your abilities,	45:43
	and meets an urgent human need,	45:44
	is one in which you can not find a job?	45:47
	What do you do then?	45:50
	Such questions keep us from living in to fantasy world.	45:53
	Oftentimes our vocation,	45:58
	that which we do in response to a call to a specific need,	46:00
	our vocation that which we do in response to a call	46:07
	to a specific need, is not our work	46:11
	or that which we do to earn a living.	46:15
	In fact, some people say that anything we get paid to do,	46:19
	whether it is a minister, a physician, or a teacher,	46:23
	a nurse, or what,	46:27
	anything we get paid to do is our work	46:28
	and we will use all the parts of our time for our vocation.	46:33
	Such an emphasis keeps our work in perspective	46:39
	for we do need to be reminded from time to time	46:43
	that no part of our life	46:47
	or even our life in total,	46:50
	not our family,	46:53
	not our work,	46:54
	not our leisure,	46:56
	will provide the ultimate meaning for our lives	46:57
	to invest any part of our life with such ultimacy.	47:01
	Means we have made it God.	47:06
	Back to the hard question.	47:11
	What do you do if you can't find a job	47:12
	that lets you do what you had committed yourself to do?	47:15
	And more and more people find themselves in this situation.	47:18
	Some of these people take another look	47:23
	at the needs in their interest	47:26
	and look at where jobs are available and start again.	47:27
	For some, they are able to find work,	47:32
	which allows them to meet their physical needs	47:36
	and then they volunteer that time	47:38
	for that to which they have been called.	47:41
	I recently heard of a man,	47:44
	who is committed to work to solve	47:47
	some of our environmental problems	47:49
	but he cannot find a job which will pay him to do this.	47:52
	Now his wife is a physician who earns enough money	47:56
	so that he is able to work full time	48:00
	in the area to which he is called but as a volunteer.	48:03
	Fortunately, he is a secure man	48:08
	who is not threatened by our valuation of people,	48:10
	particularly men,	48:15
	by the amount of money they earn.	48:17
	It may be.	48:21
	It just may be that some of you are going to be called	48:22
	to provide vision and models of alternative ways.	48:27
	We can structure our work so that all people may work	48:32
	and so that some people do not have to spend	48:37
	all that time and energy eking out on living	48:39
	with no time left for family or for leisure,	48:43
	or for civic activities.	48:47
	Rosemary Ruether, in an article toward a new solution,	48:50
	working women and a male workday,	48:55
	explore some alternatives	48:58
	projecting the possibility of a couple	49:01
	each working a 25 hour week.	49:03
	Thus giving them an adequate income	49:08
	and thus allowing them time to spend with each other,	49:10
	with their children,	49:15
	and also having time to spend	49:16
	in activities related to their personal development	49:19
	and their interest in civic and social concerns.	49:22
	Now finally,	49:28
	one last vision.	49:30
	One from Will Campbell's article on vocation as grace.	49:32
	A call for us to recognize the gifts which are ours.	49:38
	Any talent,	49:43
	any ability we have, is truly a gift to be shared.	49:45
	To be given.	49:51
	Will says, "Once my grandma Betty,	49:54
	got a new plan final bathrobe for Christmas,	49:59
	it was a present from her son in another state	50:03
	who worked for the government	50:07
	and who we all assumed had lots of money.	50:09
	It was red and green with black stripes	50:12
	dividing the colorful squares.	50:16
	The very Sunday after...	50:19
	first Sunday after Christmas,	50:21
	my grandma went to the meeting.	50:23
	She sat right up on the front row of the section	50:26
	that ran perpendicular to the pulpit.	50:30
	It was where all the older women sat	50:34
	along with middle-sized grandchildren.	50:35
	Those who no longer had to sit with the mama,	50:38
	but had not yet discovered that it was more fun	50:41
	to sit in the back.	50:44
	Some of the more sophisticated of grandma's daughters in law	50:46
	were embarrassed	50:50
	and had some rather caustic things to say to grandma	50:52
	for wearing a bathroom to church.	50:55
	But grandma Betty handled it well.	50:58
	Just hush.	51:01
	It's the prettiest thing I have ever seen	51:02
	and the Lord deserves the best.	51:06
	And she added, "Anyway, I don't have a bathroom".	51:10
	It was the middle of the depression.	51:16
	Maybe that's all vocation is."	51:18
	But the moral of the story,	51:21
	is not that grandma showed off	51:23
	the prettiest thing she had to Jesus,	51:26
	that's part of it,	51:28
	but the real moral is that the pretty thing she had	51:30
	had been given to her.	51:35
	That is grace.	51:37
	Amen and amen.	51:40
