Ephesians 3:14-21; Psalm 85; Luke 5:1-11
"Each act of giving offers you the grace to be moved off center, to allow God to be at the center of all you are and all that you have. When this begins to happen, you become more fully human. You grow in the image and likeness of God." -Mary C. Earle

And of Thine Own Have We Given Thee | The Very Revd Peet Dickinson
“Every faculty you have, your power of thinking or of moving your limbs from moment to moment, is given you by God. If you devoted every moment of your whole life exclusively to His service you could not give Him anything that was not in a sense His own already. So that when we talk of a man doing anything for God or giving anything to God, I will tell you what it is really like. It is like a small child going to its father and saying, ‘Daddy, give me sixpence to buy you a birthday present.’” - C.S. Lewis

A Song to Sing | The Very Revd Peet Dickinson
Too often the glorious truth of the Gospel finds its way into a human heart only to be hidden there in plain sight. It keeps silent even though it is the greatest song every sung and was written that it might be sung all the more. As Ella Fitzgerald once said, “The only thing better than singing is more singing.” In this week’s sermon, Dean Dickinson reminds us not to hide the song God has sung to us, but rather to keep on singing.

Advent Sight | The Very Revd Peet Dickinson
Seeing any hope when we are weighed down by life’s most difficult trials is really hard.

The Lyre String | The Very Revd Peet Dickinson
