Preaching is my greatest joy in my ministry as a priest, not only the act of speaking about what is closest to my heart and connecting with the parish, but the one or two weeks of preparation, the deep mulling over of Scripture and the life of the parish, the joys and challenges we find there. 

Sunday Forum teaching allows for longer form teaching, unfolding in greater depth a vision of God’s Kingdom and our participation in it. Such teachings are aimed at supporting a parish-wide practice of a spiritual life, engaging people in small group ministry and parish inreach, feeding outreach and mission, and  spurring direct action for social justice.
