There are two quotes from Thrity Umrigar's book, The World We Found that will direct the sermon Sunday. The book is the Fort Collins "read" and the subject of a book review I will be doing on June 20th.
She hesitated. "I--I don't know." She looked around the room, trying to find the right words. "I don't know if the world we dreamed of is an illusion, a 'children's palace,' as Laleh's father used to call it." She looked at Diane sharply as a thought hit her. "But I do know this--that my desire for that world was true. It was the truest thing I've ever felt, as true as my love for you. -- And I'd like to believe that that means something. You know?"
And then the other quotation:
"This. Life. This meeting and parting. This winning and losing. Here I was this morning, barely able to get out of bed. Didn't have any reason to, you know? And this afternoon, I force myself to leave the house, to buy food for dinner tonight. It seemed like just another ordinary day. The kind that kills you by not killing you. Know what I mean? And then, the two of you walk into my life. Just like that. No warning, nothing. And I feel like someone has peeled off twenty-five years of deadness and make me alive again. But then, it's life, right?"
What is life but what we wish it could be and what it becomes when we are present to the people we love?
Friendship can turn our lives around? Friendship can make us realize that an ordinary day is not ordinary.
How have you experienced this? Are you experiencing it now?

Monday's thoughts on Sunday's sermon
I'm doing a book review on the 20th of this month on Thrity Umrigar's book The World We Found. This is a highly complex book about three women who were friends years ago. One of them it dying. She lives in America. The other two live in Bombay, India. One of the Indian women is in a terrible marriage and she and her friend find a way to visit America and their dying friend.
It is an interesting a complex book. Ultimately, it is the story of how death enable someone to find new life.
All of this brings to mind the final days of Jesus' life and his last meal with his friends. He speaks of his death and how his death leads to new life.
Communion is a meal at which death is announced and death overcome is anticipated.
Umrigar's book brings to us the complex circumstance that happens when we realize that the only way to move to new life is to give up our old life. The only way to see the future in is to face it and work ourselves through it.
If we are on the cusp of great changes in our lives there is fear and joyful anticipation. We know things will never be the same but we are not concerned about how things will change.
If we are evolving as human beings we are going to need to die to who we have been.
Do you have a sense of that in your life; I do?
Have you ever had a sense that things are moving too fast and things are out of control?
How do you look at that change as something positive rather than something to fear?

Friday's thoughts on Sunday's sermon
It comes down to this;
The text referred to in the 2nd Chapter of Acts if from Joel and it suggests that "young men will see visions and old men will dream dreams."
It's all about visions and dreams.
When we're young we have visions. We are driven to fulfill our hopes. We are hurled into our future with the sense that there are things we must do and we have to get onto doing them. We have to make a difference in the world and time is running out. There is the flame inside us that flickers. We have a job to do and we have changes to make.
It's all about dreams when we age. It's about looking back to see where we've been. Some of the past haunts us and the dreams become our cross the carry. We wish things could have been different. We wanted things to be other than they were.
There were bad decisions.
There were times when we should have risen to the occasion and we lapsed into a failed attempt to accommodate the occasion.
We are haunted by our dreams; they are our cross the carry.
We are hurled by our visions; they are the flame that ignites us.
The cross and the flame has become a symbol for two groups that I'm aware of.
The cross and the flame is a symbol for racism; the KKK and the cross and the flame is a symbol for Methodism. Sunday is Pentecost. It's the birth of the church. The church is a place that helps us learn to carry our crosses and invites us to feed the flame of our imagination.

Wednesday's thoughts on Sunday's sermon
"Re-Member"
Pentecost and Memorial Day put together opposite impulses and that is what we have to do on Sunday. We have to think about how young men and women have visions and old men and old women have dreams. It's in the 2nd Chapter of Acts. It is the Pentecost event reported by the writer who wrote the Gospel of Luke. Peter gives a speech and he talks about the Spirit of God and how the sun turns to blood and how the Spirit comes into the people and there are dreams and visions.
Memorial Weekend is a time for dreams. We look back to the past and we remember the way things were and the people who were important to us. We remember the men and women who gave their lives for our freedom. We remember the legacy they have left for us.
Pentecost is a time to think about the birth of the church and to tap into the vision we have for the future; the future of the church; the future for our nation; the future for each of us.
Pentecost and Memorial represent the merger of conservative/liberal. There is a part of the liberal aspect of our thinking that is conservative and there is a part of the conservative part of our thinking that is liberal. In fact liberal and conservative; holding on to the past and moving toward the future; reactionary thinking and progressive thinking are part of the same thought.
We can embrace one without the other; Are you conservative? Are you liberal? Do you have dreams? Do you have visions?
Are your dreams related to your visions and are your visions growing out of your dreams?

Monday's thoughts on Sunday's sermon
"Re-Member"
We have concurrent themes going next Sunday. Pentecost is the recollected time on the Acts of the Apostles when it was thought that the church was born. The story is told that the disciples were gather together to celebrate a Thanksgiving event fifty days after Passover. It was a time when the people of Israel remember that the "angel of death" Passed Over their houses and they were spared. Pentecost stands for the celebration when the barley harvest was over and the wheat harvest was to begin. The people would bring an offering of barley to the Temple in Jerusalem as a token of gratitude for their survival and for their thriving as a nation.
The disciples had experienced the death on the cross of their leader. Jesus had appeared to them but they were still in mourning and disbelief and they didn't know what they would do.
At the Pentecost celebration the holy spirit fell upon them and they began to find direction for their lives and the church was born.
It was a time when people remembered the past and when they began to build something new.
I've been looking at the DVD the church made of the military veterans in our congregation. Several of our church members spoke about their military experience and a DVD was made of it. Most of the veterans are still alive but some have died. It was an inspiring time to watch those speeches.
Next Sunday is both Pentecost Sunday and Memorial Weekend. We remember, with gratitude those who have gone before us, but that memory enables us to look toward our future. Our remembering gives us an opportunity to "re-member".
The foundation of the past and the men and women who have sacrificed for our freedom requires that we take a careful look at our future to be sure that we know the foundation upon which we are building and to enable us to move forward. Remembering leads to re-membering. Once we are re-membered we are building a future that would make the people who have gone before us proud.
Who are the people in your past you remember? If you have thoughts about this write me at charlesschuster@fcfumc.net. If you are willing to share your thoughts with the readers of the blog click on the 'comments' box below.

Tuesday's thoughts on Sunday's sermon
"This Sunday is Confirmation Sunday. Fifteen of our youth, who have been meeting regularly with Sam, will be joining our church. It will be my privilege to preach for the services.
The title of the sermon will be: "The 8th Wonder of the World - The Gap", and will be based on five Scriptures:
Genesis 1:26-27, Matthew 1:18-23, Luke 2:41-52, Matthew 3:13-17 and Matthew 4:18-22.
What we discover in these Scriptures is a Gap...a Gap of history from when Jesus was 12 years of age until he began his ministry at age 30. We know so little of what happened to him after he left the Temple in Jerusalem and went with his parents to live in Nazareth. We can only imagine how he "grew in years, in wisdom and in favor with others" during those
18 years.
The question for all of us, and especially for the 15 Confirmands, is "how do we gain wisdom?"....."how did Jesus gain wisdom?" My best guess is wisdom comes from experiences.....in relationships, with discovering something about ourselves we did not know was tucked deeply inside our souls, and in learning to love ourselves in the good times and the bad.
Sunday will be a good time to explore The Gap....those years we know so little about, and those years that are some of the most important in our lives.
I look forward to seeing you this Sunday. It can be a time to re-affirm our faith along with 15 youth."

Friday's thoughts on Sunday's sermon
Of all the possibilities and directions a sermon on Mother's Day might take the one that seems most controversial and interesting is the last part of the sermon this Sunday. I can support the idea that 1. Our mother taught us to sing. I can believe it is important that we learn to sing "a new song".
The third phase of this sermon suggests that the new song we sing has a quality to it that we won't realize for long, long time. Some of us never completely see it. This is what happens I believe: The new song we learn to sing; the one we thought was our song turns out to be her song. We have a subtle influence in our lives and we may or may not realize it. It comes out to us in a variety of ways. We will find ourselves saying some of the things our mother said, or doing some of the things she did. We will discover that our voice is a copy of her voice and we might hear it in the inflection or the tone of our speaking.
Isn't it true that the more things change the more they remain the same.
How do you find your mother's influence in your life? Does it seem you are singing her song, if you think about it, and how does it make you feel to realize that?
I loved my mother as much as any son could love his mother. She was an amazing, courageous, funny, creative, wonderful human being. When I find her influence in my life in ways I hadn't realized I find it irritating.
How about you?

Wednesday's thoughts on Sunday's sermon
There is a tension in the sermon as we think of our mother. Most of our mothers gave us a foundation that has helped define for us our identity and our values. She gave us the song to sing and we learned it. As we grew up we perfected it but we know it was the song she taught us.
The psalmist suggests that we learn to sing a new song. Psalm 98 reminds us how God is asking us to sing a new song. There comes a time in our lives when we realize the song we are singing is not our mother's song but our own song.
We are supposed to learn from the foundational song we were given to sing but we are instructed to sing a new song and to find our music and words in the lives we live.
What is the new song you have learned? How does it differ from the one your mother taught you?

Monday's thoughts on Sunday's sermon
Mother's Day
May 13, 2012
This is the story of a man who is remembered for his mother.
This is his story:
He was a young man who flunked out of a chemistry class at the United States Military Academy at West Point. He once said, "if silicon had been a gas I would have been a general."
He was a caustic and sarcastic man who when confronted by someone who was not known to him and who said to him, "You know, I passed you house last night." This man interrupted the stranger and said, "Thank you."
When we think of this man we don't remember much about him but we remember his mother, Anna. She had been ill. He made her pose for him for three days. Finally, she was so exhausted she had to sit down.
There is the famous portrait of Anna sitting down.
She is the famous one. He is just her son. His name was James Whistler. Anna Whistler is known as "Whistler's Mother". Her portrait is famous.
Mother's Day is a time for us to think about our mothers and a time to think about what we do to bring her honor.
When we think of Jesus we remember his mother, Mary.
She pulled him from the Temple when he was 12 years old and got lost in the crowd.
She pushed him into his ministry at a wedding by asking him to "turn water into wine."
She visited him while he was preaching and she heard him say, "Who is my mother?"
She stood beside him as he died on the cross.
We are Christians because of the Gospel of Jesus but Sunday, May 13th we remember Mary, his mother and we remember our mother and we think about what we have done or what we could do to honor her.
