The level of congregational engagement will determine what is possible
Angels, divine holy beings, are all around us. Angels are so popular they also appear in many aspects of our culture on a regular basis. We have 1994 film Angels in the Outfield. We see angels made of stone adorning cemeteries. I’m not going to judge, but I do want to take you away from the whimsical, the cute, and the adorable to consider this Sunday when we observe Saint Michael and All Angels.
Saint Michael might be familiar to you, but I encourage you to read more by clicking on his name and seeing what Wikipedia has to say about him. Our readings for this Sunday, including Psalm 91, will take you to what God has to say about His angels and their work. Because I will preach on Matthew 18:1-11, I invite you to consider the role angels have and see how God is merciful and provides for our needs through angels.
For a beautiful piece of music by Felix Mendelssohn as part of his oratorio Elijah, click on the name, hear the music, and see the text from Psalm 91 that brings beauty to the very important and powerful role angels have.
