Cathedrals of Faith

It is wonderful to be home and back in the pulpit at St. Peter’s! One of the takeaways from the pilgrimage for me was that the cathedrals we visited are an allegory for the faith of the people who worship in them. If you were, as Amos prophesied, to set a plumb line next to your faith, would it stand up straight? Would your walls be strong and would your towers stand tall? We all fall short. We do not love God as we should. We fail to love our neighbor. But thanks be to God for Jesus, the foundation that not only maintains our faith, but builds us up.
