christmastime conspiracy

Posted by on Dec 5, 2011

It’s a Christmastime conspiracy There’s something going on that we Might catch a glimpse, what can it be? This Christmastime conspiracy… Wise ones heard that it was said In Bethlehem will be the bed Of a ruler who will reign instead Of those who think they know… It’s a Christmastime conspiracy There’s something going on that we Might catch a glimpse, what can it be? This Christmastime conspiracy… In the fields way out of town Out of touch, out of bounds Watching sheep they heard the sounds A message from a choir… ’bout a Christmastime conspiracy There’s something going on that we Might catch a glimpse, what can it be? This Christmastime conspiracy… Unlikely people seemed to know Emmanuel, God who shows Up in a manger, not a throne How can this be true? This Christmastime conspiracy There’s something going on that we Might catch a glimpse, what can it be? This Christmastime conspiracy… So pay attention here my friend This plot it hasn’t reached the end There’s more that’s coming round the bend And you can play a role… In this Christmastime conspiracy There’s something going on that we Might catch a glimpse, what can it be? This Christmastime conspiracy… (words and music by Bryan Moyer Suderman. Copyright © 2011 SmallTall Music. All rights reserved.

people of God’s pace

Posted by on Nov 11, 2010

I bet you think that’s a typo in the title of this post, don’t you? On Sunday morning I spoke/sang/led worship at “the red brick church” in Niagara… it was Peace Sunday… and the bulletin announced the hymn just prior to my input as “HWB #407 – We Are People of God’s Pace.” Our “keynote text” was 2 Corinthians 5:16 – 6:2 … new creation, God’s reconciling work, our role as partners, ambassadors, co-workers in this “ministry of reconciliation”… And the statement that “We are people of God’s pace” struck me as profound, powerful, and timely. So as we explored scripture, stories and songs (including one of the rare times I’ve sung “Peace in Public” in public), I kept coming back to this statement, riffing on its implications… for me, for us, for the world… What does it mean for us to live into this vocation as “a people of God’s peace”… and “God’s pace”… Typo? Perhaps. But a compelling assertion and reminder...
