Hace algún tiempo, apareció un artículo en el Nueva York Times, titulado “El velo de la opulencia,” escrito por Benjamín Hale, profesor de filosofía y medio ambiente de la Universidad de Colorado (nytimes.com/2012/08/12/the-veil-of-opulence). En este artículo el autor nos invita a imaginarnos una sociedad construida sobre la opulencia, en la cual todo individuo tenga en…
How many of you know the Lord’s Prayer? By heart? There is the traditional language and cadence that we use in the Episcopal Church, which is so very familiar: “Our Father, who art in heaven.” And there is the contemporary language: “Our Father in heaven, holy be your name.” There is controversy over some fine…
San Pablo invita a la Iglesia de los colosenses a vivir según Cristo Jesús. Esto recuerda el himno cristológico de Hebreos 5:6-7 donde se afirma que Jesús, en los días de su vida mortal, “clamaba al Padre con ruegos, súplicas y lágrimas”. Es decir, el Hijo de Dios, en su condición de hombre, en todo…
Just when we think we have the formula all worked out, the path to success all laid out, the one easy answer for earning us an A-plus for discipleship, Jesus goes and throws a wrench into the works. Last week we heard the story of the Good Samaritan, where the point was: Go and do….
Todos tenemos la libertad de ser quienes queremos ser y ninguno tiene la obligación absoluta de hacer las cosas que hacemos en la vida. No hay carrera, vocación o trabajo que tengamos que ejercer. No hay una persona específica a la que tengamos que amar. No hay ley que nos dicte tener hijos o no tenerlos, quedarnos solteros/as o…
There once was a run-down coffee shop in a neighborhood that was known for being dangerous. One day, an Episcopal priest came in to get some coffee on his way to somewhere else. He sat down to wait, busying himself with the paper, not paying attention to a man in the opposite corner who was…
Amados hermanos y hermanas en el Señor Jesús: Uno de los nuevos nombres con que actualmente podemos designar a la paz es la “no-violencia activa”. Está más que comprobado que no se puede seguir luchando contra el mal produciendo más mal; no es posible combatir el pecado con nuevos pecados; no se hace desaparecer la…
Jesús proclamó el reino de Dios y definió su misión con el anuncio de su llegada. Una y otra vez, Jesús modeló para nosotros las obras que verdaderamente reflejan la visión de Dios por un mundo justo. El ministerio de Jesús estaba centrado en establecer comunidad entre los excluidos y aquellos que los excluían. Su…
We are good at placing burdens on our clergy. One of the most severe is to expect them to be the chief, perhaps the only agents of parish growth. We await a new rector, ready to give a list of lapsed people, former parishioners who have strayed, or perhaps even the names of people we…
“Independent.” It’s a word with almost universally positive connotations. People fill up their resumes describing how this or that experience made them more independent. As our children grow up and take on more challenges by themselves, we articulate their growing independence as evidence of maturity. Academics and intellectuals cherish the thought that they are “independent…
