saint benedict's table

saint benedict’s table is a liturgical community in the Anglican tradition, deeply involved at the intersection of faith and culture. Along with posting our weekly Sunday sermons, we are creating new podcasts exploring themes and questions of interest both to the church and to the wider culture. Inspired by what Robert Webber called “the church’s ancient-future,” we draw deeply on the great liturgical, theological and spiritual traditions of our forebears as we explore new ground, new music, new ideas and new futures.

What the palms say | a sermon

April 03, 2023 • saint benedict's table

A sermon by Jamie Howison for Palm Sunday, April 2, 2023. At saint ben's we do something a little different with the readings for this Sunday. Rather than following the lectionary and reading the full Passion Gospel, we open with the Palm story, follow that with the story of the last supper, and then close our liturgy with the Gethsemane story. For us that sets the tone for the week to come, in which we retell the crucifixion story on both Tuesday evening in our Stations of the Cross and then off course on Good Friday.
