Wonderful sermon whose perspective I can live out in succeeding days. Thank you Dean Hollerith for a timely, insightful sermon that was delivered so well.
Excellent. Need more ministers to recognize they and the flock live in a bubble. If i had to guess % of college grads among friends and colleagues would say almost 100%. A bubble isolated from larger community for certain. Thank you for reminding us of our blindness.
It’s amazing to me that anyone who reads doesn’t realize the plight of the working class. It is especially surprising from clergy as Christ speaks almost exclusively to and for the working poor. How do we do better? We open our purse, ears, and minds to those in need.
Please note Dean Randy (despite his assessment of himself) was well aware of (& responsive to) the importance of the suffering of the underprivileged. Therefore he was unaware of the scale of the problem, not its importance. Therefore he had no qualitative deficiency but a quantitative one.
@ I think I understand what you mean, but I’m not sure why that matters. If he didn’t understand that the vast majority of people are in a difficult situation in our world it’s a failure to understand the nature of our societal difficulties. It’s worse, in my mind, that he would know that life is tough for so many but not be moved by that towards action. Will his new understanding of the numbers of those who are being hurt by our societal structure change his (and the cathedral’s) policies? Will he in his life and leadership role be changed by his new understanding?
Being unaware of the importance of a problem can only be a qualitative deficiency. Being unaware of the scale of a problem can only be a quantitative deficiency. Dean Randy (despite his assessment of himself) was only unaware of the scale of the problem.
@@michaelswan2991 yes, you said. My issue is that I don’t believe, despite learning more, that he or the work of the cathedral will change to account for this new information.
@@michaelswan2991 change is needed because people need help that they are not getting and The Episcopal Church has the moral, ethical, and spiritual responsibility to aid those in need.

Thank you Reverend Randy….I have learned so much from your sermons in the last five years.. …and your humility is encouraging always. Thank you
Excellent sermon Dean Randy . Thank you ! I hope it opened many people’s eyes!
Hallelujah!!! I’m favored and blessed with $60,000 every week! Now I can afford anything and also support the work of God and the church.
Oh really? Tell me more!
This is what Melissa Jonas Richard does, she has changed my life.
After raising up to 60k trading with her, I bought a new house and car here in the US and also paid for my son’s (Oscar) surgery. Glory to God.shalom.
I know Melissa Jonas Richard, and I have also had success...
Absolutely! I have heard stories of people who started with little or no knowledge but managed to emerge victorious thanks to Melissa Jonas Richard.
A wonderful message. Thank you!

Nice “Blind As Bats” comment. I hear ya. I’m dealing with some “Bats” myself.
How much can a BA cost, Michael? 15 dollars?
