Our synagogue's tagline is the quote you used toward the end of your remarks re: the cornerstone. I like how you said, "But it’s never too late to be joined to the cornerstone which the builders rejected."

I was preaching for Pentecost this past Sunday and discovered so many linked structures and themes of the Jewish Shavuot and Christian Pentecost. I loved it!<br /><br />Thanks for the wonderful compliment that Christianity is all about love. Hopefully, love prompts intentional Christians to loving action here and now.<br /><br />As for the Cursillo, while it may be all about love, it cannot help but convey doctrinal content -- like any institutional religious endeavor -- but at best, that's not its focus.<br /><br />More on Cursillos in Christianity at:<br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cursillo<br /><br />My sermon is at:<br />http://ohclectionary.blogspot.com/2009/05/holy-cross-monastery-west-park-ny-br.html<br /><br />Love to you and Pat (I always love the down-to-earth character of her remarks),<br /><br />Bernard, faithfully your "monkish genteel gentile"Br.
