This is my first podcast in six months and the first since repairing the damage done by the hack attack in October. My plan still is a reworking of the blog and podcast feed at the end of the month but the events of last Friday have had me thinking, much like the rest of you. I’m to the point I’m reluctant to even tweet or look at facebook, let alone watch the news, as there is little else to be heard. It almost makes the petty bickering of Democrats and Republicans over the fiscal cliff welcome… almost.
In the last few days I have been asked about where is God in all this and what should we be saying as people of faith, people who know doubt as much as anyone else when confronted by a scene that should come out of hell itself. I have podcast my sermon from this past Sunday along with some other comments but a second podcast will be coming soon that will be more informed by the conversations I have been having with our youth, members of our congregation, and a radio interview I will be part of tomorrow. In this second podcast I’ll be addressing the one aspect of this that few people seem to be willing to address – the reality of evil that is beyond any human control or comprehension.
