		<description><![CDATA[I really enjoy the seasons of Advent and Lent... They provide a time for the church to reconnoiter in the betwixt and the between... They are also periods of time where the prophetic word is heard in many ways, shapes, and forms throughout the catholic church (FYI: little "c" catholic = universal church)... Here is a sermon preached on December 6, 2009 at Hollidaysburg Church of the Brethren (my mother is the pastor)...<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=brethrenheretic.wordpress.com&amp;blog=5833604&amp;post=56&amp;subd=brethrenheretic&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
