13 February 2022 | Septuagesima Sunday | Menlo Park, Calif.
Beneath the moon and stars this Sunday night, let’s talk about obedience, sacrifice, and self-knowledge. What is the theological basis for Christian obedience? Does it have any inherent limits? I share some thoughts from my thesis research. In the Pickwick Papers, Sam Weller illustrates what it means to make a sacrifice: “to make something holy by giving it away for love.” Finally, St. Catherine of Siena gives us an important lesson on looking in the mirror.
