November 4

A lot’s happened in my tiny little life over the past months, not the least of which is that I’ve become interim pastor at the Baptist church here in town. Long story, and I do plan to get to that here in this space, but I thought it best for now to share my sermon from last Sunday with a few minor edits. Because really, we could all use a little perspective today? Yeah?

Quotes by Billy Coffey (?)

“Some pasts exist as a fog that rolls in and out of the present, formed not by air that condenses into mist but memories that condense into tiny doors that open to forgotten moments. Maybe you glance at a stranger on a crowded street who reminds you of a childhood friend or hear a song that was popular the first summer you fell in love, and in the space of that single beat of time you are flung backward to a who or when long past. And yet it is only for that one beat. Those tiny doors never remain open for long for most of us. They ensure our former times are kept as relics, and the dust upon them is wiped clean only occasionally”
― Billy Coffey, The Devil Walks in Mattingly
