The lections for this sermon were 1 Kings 8:22-23,27b-30; Psalm 84; 1 Corinthians 3:1-11,16-17; Matthew 21:10-14.

Human beings have always had a great yearning to connect with holy places.  It is the fundamental reason for pilgrimage, and the reason why we bury people in the church yard.  The psalmist claims that even the birds want to nest by God’s altar.

Chickens just might be more familiar to urbanites than sheep are these days.  Even goats are encountered more frequently than sheep.  These biblical images have become so distant or idealized that we have a hard time making sense out of what it means to be a good shepherd.  Yet the imagery around shepherds is absolutely central to the biblical narrative.

Learning to identify birds, or how to plant trees, tie knots, or build a fire, are important skills that teach us about the world around us.  So are the things we learn in Scout troop or by going to camp.  We meet girls from different cultures and backgrounds, we try different foods, and we learn to live together in community.
