February 19, 2020 by Tamara Dix

We need 1-2 people who would be willing to direct our Alpha Beta camp this summer at Camp Caroline. Finley Baldwin, the part-time Youth Director at Hillyer Memorial Christian Church, has been busy planning this week of camp with Courtney Hickman (the week’s keynoter), but Finley recently landed an awesome new job. Because of that… Read More →

The Last Blessing

February 19, 2020 by Tamara Dix

This coming Sunday’s sermon is built on the final beatitude in Matthew 5. A pertinent quote comes from Abuna Elias Chacour, the now retired 80-year-old archbishop of the Melkite Catholic Church in Israel. He is a Palestinian Christian, and a Galilean, having been brought up in the vicinity of Jesus’s upbringing. He is also an… Read More →

The Evolution of Valentine’s Day

February 19, 2020 by Tamara Dix

Dear friends, This week in ancient Rome, people celebrated the feast of Lupercalia. The aim of this festival was to release energy for health and fertility. It honored the god called Lupercus, the protector of shepherds’ flocks against wolves, as well as the promoter of fertility among sheep. The festival began with the sacrifice of… Read More →

Dear friends, In 1958, Charles Schulz, the creator of “Peanuts,” published a book compiled from cartoons he’d drawn for Youth magazine. “Harold” was the main character among several, who were involved in the life of a church somewhat typical of mainline white congregations in the Midwest in the late 1950s.

Why I Care About Compassion Week

February 5, 2020 by Tamara Dix

Dear friends, “Tradition,” the iconic song Harnick and Bock wrote for “Fiddler on the Roof,” is about roles in a Jewish family—Papa, Mama, Son, and Daughter. But for me, Tradition means a continuing pattern of beliefs or practice handed down from one generation to another. One tradition I treasure is the Week of Compassion. Surprisingly (to… Read More →

Do You Have the Time

January 23, 2020 by Tamara Dix

Dear friends, Early in my first interim pastorate, I heard peevish comments about the length of sermons. These weren’t directed at me; I’d barely arrived. But the subject became somewhat of a joke as someone always seemed to be timing the length of the sermon. One Sunday, when my year there was nearly finished, the… Read More →
