| Résumé: | The dimension of eternity has been lost from much contemporary religious consciousness. Liberals tend to focus on action within time, as do conservatives, who see history as a battleground for a war of good against evil. Spiritual life, however, also requires nurturing a sense of eternity within time. These sermons from Marsh Chapel at Boston University follow the lectionary in highlighting the places of temporal life within eternity, and the places eternity is found in temporal life. The liturgical year is employed as the venue for articulating a comprehensive theology on the themes of the temporal and eternal aspects of Christian nurture The deepest contradiction -- Heaven in earth -- Wrestle till the break of day -- Who was Jesus? -- A living sacrifice -- Investment -- Tolerance and forgiveness -- The arbitrariness of grace -- Face-to-face with God -- The great commandment -- Hypocrisy and humility -- Wakefulness and different talents -- The day of the Lord -- God with us -- The word became flesh -- A time for everything -- God calls -- Call to ministry -- Authority now and in the old times -- Healing, praying, preaching -- Witness -- Transformation to see God -- Hypocrisy and piety -- Baptism -- Money -- Sickness -- Religions -- Politics -- Into Your hands I commit my spirit -- Fear -- Do not hold me -- Touch and light -- Beginnings and endings, wisdom and choice -- Homily for Simon Parker's funeral -- The New Commandment : love one another -- Jesus living -- Spirit coming -- To be born again -- To grow -- To face life |
