This post links to a sermon from this past Sunday at Trinity UCC, Concord. It raises the question for me of where problems with authority really lie. Sometimes the problem is with the authority itself. Jesus challenges the notion that authority is a matter of office. Rather, he demonstrates that the more authentic authority is compassion.
I give thanks for the help of Bonnie Schell in the delivery of this sermon about changing our attitudes toward mental illness.
