Christ, our Passover (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Exodus 12:1-14 “Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us; Therefore, let us keep the feast” (BCP 364). How many times have we recited this familiar couplet after the Fraction, just prior to receiving Holy Communion? A few times, right? For some of us, more times than we can remember.

Being Church (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Romans 12:9-21 Gotta love what the Apostle Paul sets forth as the “Marks of a True Christian:” Love out loud! …God, neighbor and even strangers.

The best way to walk on water (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Matthew 14:22-33 Aieeeeeeee! “Lord, save me!” Matthew doesn’t say that Peter screamed as he began to sink, and felt the water closing over his head, but it seems reasonable that he would have. I know I would have. Even before Peter’s brush with death, the disciples had been having a pretty rough go of it. Struggling against the wind on a roiling […] A few words from Father Kemper is made with Jetpack Podcast. Full show notes and every episode at https://fatherkemper.blog/
