Homily

Colossians 1:15-28; Luke 10:38-42
I moved to a new home a few weeks ago … I know that I’m settling into a new place to call home when I put up a picture frame on the wall … and I have this icon … It’s this beautiful picture of Jesus standing there in colorful robes at the moment of creation …. It’s a beautiful vision of the created order in its right place, of things redeemed, reconciled, living in harmony … I’ve been looking at other icons of sorts this past week — images in the news — and these images tempt me to say, “so much for mystic visions of a redeemed world…”
