Preached 24 May, 2009 by Reverend Peter Lougheed - Emmanuel United Church
It was the third bomb this week in Pakistan. A man walked into a mosque in Jamrud during Friday prayers. The congregation was about the size of our gathering this morning. Just after the Imam said the words, “God is great”, the bomb was detonated. Half of the congregation were killed or injured.
And what are we supposed to do with this season of Lent? Self denial in Lent is not really a Protestant thing. But most religious traditions do call for some special effort during holy seasons.
“There’s probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.”
