Saying Voldemort
April 26, 2024 00:07 - 26 minutes - 36.1 MB“Voldemort is real and the healing power of God’s love is more powerful … if we have the courage to care more about the mission than the money. If we have the courage to care more about the most vulnerable among us than the institution we have supposedly built in their honor Voldemort is real. The future is uncertain. And the love of God is our birthright, our purpose and our legacy.” Sermon by Mike Kinman from worship at 10:00 a.m. on Earth Sunday, April 21, 2024 at All Saints Church, P...

Blackbiird Fly
April 03, 2024 18:08 - 22 minutes - 31.1 MB“Magdalene thought Jesus was the gardener … because Jesus was the gardener. Think about it. Why wouldn’t Jesus be the gardener? Isn’t it natural that the Jesus who was born as an Illegal migrant and quickly became a refugee should first appear as a day laborer? But even Magdalene, who had been erased and dismissed and treated as a “just another woman” even just minutes before by the male disciples, fell into the trap of only looking for Jesus in a comfortable, familiar form. That’...
I Want to Break Free
March 27, 2024 02:48 - 14 minutes - 20.2 MB“It’s OK to break free … as long as you don’t break too free. It’s OK to break free … as long as you don’t make people with power and money too uncomfortable. It’s OK to break free … as long as you stay respectable, don’t rock that boat too much, don’t challenge the purity cultures that divide and the etiquettes that bind. It’s OK to break free … but keep it down, would you? That’s the challenge. We want to break free … and we don’t want to be crucified. And yet what we have just witnesse...

Doing Small Things with Great Love
March 12, 2024 20:18 - 17 minutes - 24 MB“As a hospital chaplain, I have been asked to pray for the sick and those on the verge of death, but I have never witnessed a miracle like the ones recounted in the Gospel of Mark. But I have seen how the ripples of the small acts that we do with great love are miraculously multiplied by God’s Spirit and ripple outward from us in ever-expanding circles, spreading the inexhaustible light of God’s love to our neighbors both far and wide. The Dutch priest Henri Nouwen, a spiritual thinker and ...

You deserve a healthy relationship with your body and you are worthy of the time, space and resources it takes to create that relationship. Pleasure is not a sin. Delight and pleasure are a beautiful part of being alive…. Our bodies are for honoring, not policing. We are queer followers of a queer Christ. And thank God for that.” Sermon by Mike Kinman from worship at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, February 25, 2024 ...

Dear Friend
January 31, 2024 20:39 - 16 minutes - 23 MB“I truly believe … God dreams for us to be a community that is unflinching in our quest for justice. A community that refuses to remain silent in the midst of horrendous evil, knowing that “Silence in the face of evil is itself evil… Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.” A community that is as determined as ever not “to simply bandage the wounds of victims beneath the wheels of injustice,” but “to drive a spoke into the wheel itself.” A community that is as determined as ever to ...

So instead of trying to pretend we aren’t in pain, can we meet in that place of pain?” Sermon by Mike Kinman from worship at 10:00 a.m. on Healing Sunday, January 21, 2024 at All Saints Church, Pasadena.

Breathing In and Out
January 12, 2024 07:08 - 21 minutes - 29.1 MB“Epiphany is a revelation of wisdom. Of what to hold onto … and what to release. Of how to travel light, carrying only what we need to be free and releasing now what we now can let go. Breathing in and out. Now, Gospel tells us they brought three gifts … gold, frankincense and myrrh. Love is not the easy thing. The only baggage you can bring is all that you can’t leave behind. Gold, frankincense and myrrh. That’s what the magi couldn’t leave behind. For Jesus, and for us. Because e...
Hopes and Fears
January 10, 2024 06:24 - 18 minutes - 25.2 MB“The love that binds us all together with one another and with God is the child in the manger, is the word of the Prophet Mohammed, praise be unto him, is the great light that still shines on those to whom Isaiah speaks who still live in exile and fear.

Because tonight we gather at the manger – Jew, Muslim and Christian – believer and struggler – friend and foe – and we say with one voice that the love that is God t...

Images of God
November 28, 2023 17:02 - 21 minutes - 29 MB“God is beyond all humanity, and can never be fully described in our human language.

Let It Be
November 28, 2023 16:56 - 18 minutes - 24.9 MB“Be still and know that I am God. Every little thing is going to be all right Let it be. These are calls for us to show up.

To hold onto each other tightly, fiercely and lovingly. To hold onto each other in trust that the love that binds us together can not only heal us but can heal the world.” Sermon by Mike Kinman from...

Grieve with Abandonment… but Not Without Hope
November 28, 2023 16:47 - 21 minutes - 29.3 MB“On this day and the days that follow, may we more fully become a community that does not join the world in fearing death and silencing grief … but embracing both death and grief as the gateway to healing and wholeness. On this day and the days that follow may we hold each other in trusting or even trying to trust that far from hiding our tears, we can shout them and scream them because though our tears are a powerful word, they will never be the last word. On this day and the days th...
What Grips You?
November 08, 2023 17:44 - 25 minutes - 34.4 MB“Is our relationship with the wealth you have more about fear or more about joy? If you are experiencing any sort of poverty, what a difference would it make to be freed from that burden? Actually to “not be anxious about your life, what you all will eat or what you all will drink, or about your body, what you all will wear.” And if you are among those of us who are not, what a joy would it be to be a part of freeing each other from that? For all of us, whether what has us in our grip is wea...

October 17, 2023 04:29 - 22 minutes - 31.1 MB“What is revolutionary about Jesus … and what we as the Church are most afraid to preach because it is what got Jesus on the cross … is the truth that tribal elder imparted to me that evening and of which the indigenous peoples in our midst have been waiting for centuries for us to understand.

The Cornerstone
October 11, 2023 23:38 - 20 minutes - 28.7 MB“While we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone of this building today and while we will spend this year of commemoration, reflection and celebration telling wonderful and sometimes painful stories … what has made this space sacred and what continues to make this space sacred has nothing to do with the bricks and mortar and glass. It’s us. And a hundred years of people like us – sanctifying this space with our struggle. Sanctifying the space with our truths … eve...

Finding the One
September 19, 2023 05:48 - 25 minutes - 34.8 MB“In one of the most destabilizing times in our history as a church, when that destabilization is driving so many to the poles of fundamentalism … both liberal and conservative … we are here trying to do what to the rest of the world is increasingly bizarre.

We are trying to look at those the world would have us other and instead of saying “what is wrong with you” ask “what happened to you” … all the while … ...

You Belong
August 30, 2023 01:32 - 15 minutes - 21.9 MB“There is no question that today we are in a belonging crisis. When you understand that love, belonging, and worthiness, are something you are born into, not something you have earn, anything is possible.

I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
August 30, 2023 00:13 - 26 minutes - 36 MB“It is time for a new Declaration of Independence. It is time to fling open the doors of every cage and let every bird take flight. Abolition is faithful and patriotic and both our founding document and our Gospel call us to overthrow any system or government that does not live up to the high standard of liberty and justice for all. And while that requires individual commitment by each of us it also requires recognizing that we will only get free if we extend the same agape love to each ot...
The Wrong Kind of Body

I have the wrong kind of body, too. I chose it so I could be like you. So that you would know in your wrong kind of body, that you'll never be alone’. Because when God became human, they made for themselves the wrong kind of body. God could've chosen for themselves a Roman body, the body of a colonizing ...
