Proclamation! For the 12th Sunday after Pentecost, Sunday 11 August 2024
While Reverend Shelley enjoys a summer break, we are joined today by the Reverend Catherine Sider Hamilton. Reverend Catherine tells us the story of an uprising of a son against his own father, and the battle in which that son, Absalom, was killed. Even though it was an uprising against his own leadership, David wept and cried aloud, “O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! Would I had died instead of you, O Absalom, my son, my son!”
