Why Does Ken Keep Writing Sermons?

To any of us who cannot hear the Word,

to any of us who remain in our troubled

house or job, failed loves or detached children,

or locked in a past prison, he comes and

opens the door and little beams of light

slip in and our escape seems possible.

We begin to hear trees swaying – a rush

of wind blows through us, lifts the weight

of days and years. We see that the

star still shines.

Drawn by a call, he must listen for the wind

and rain – feel the crush of storms – so he

can fill the everlasting cup to offer to those

of us who are imprisoned and reduce our

sentence. He moves about among us and

hearing him, some of us may ask, “How

can I let go?” and he can pass to us the

sun to interrupt dark clouds.

So, through Ken, freedom and the Spirit

will answer our fearful hearts.
