WLSU, The Dishwasher is Full (Again)
| Guest Speaker
WLSU, The Dishwasher is Full (Again)
It’s not a very glamorous story. And to be honest, it doesn’t reflect well on me. But I’ll tell it anyway.
About fifteen years ago, while working on being a more loving husband, (which, by the way, should be on the list of Official Spiritual Disciplines) I acted very impulsively and asked my wife how she would like to be loved. What could I do that would make her feel, really and truly appreciated?
“Unload the dishwasher. Every day. I hate doing it, so if you could, that would make me feel loved.”
I foolishly believed she was going to ask for flowers. Or maybe a bracelet. Do women wear bracelets anymore? That’s how out of touch I was (am). But, fine. The dishwasher thing was good. Simple, too. Not a problem.
So, for the first two weeks I unloaded the dishwasher without hesitation.

WLSU, Accepting Blessing
My Dad told me he was gay when I was 13 years old and I made the decision in that moment to accept him for who he was. That is not to say I actually did accept him for who he was immediately. I meant to. I wanted to. I made the decision to. But the reality was I had no idea what that acceptance meant, and I had no idea how that acceptance would change who I am.

The teaching of the church in which I grew up was clear: Only heterosexual attraction was part of God’s plan and anything else was sinful and unnatural. Any sexual attraction or activity that strayed from heterosexuality was abhorrent to God. And anyone who was gay was questionable at best – their orientation dubbed a “lifestyle”, their very being called a choice and a bad one at that.
I believed all these things when I was 13. I was taught them as a matter of fact, so I did not question them any more than I questioned that 1+1=2.
And then my Dad told me he was gay.

WLSU, When A Church Practices What it Preaches
| Guest Speaker
WLSU, When A Church Practices What it Preaches
This podcast is about love, so let’s talk about what the church preaches about love. We say that we should love others as Jesus first loved us. We say we should love our enemies. We say to should love generously, sacrificially even. But do we practice what we preach?
Yes, of course we do. Sometimes. I’ve seen extraordinary love inside the church, and from the church toward the world. I’ve spent most of my life working in the church, and I’ve seen a lot of exemplary love in those years. I’ve also seen us fall short plenty of times. After all, the church is made up of people, and we’re all sinners. So the church will never be perfect, at least not until Jesus comes again to sort it all out.
For now, I wanted to celebrate a time I saw — I felt — the church practice what it preaches.
It all happened in 2022 when I almost died. I was passing through Singapore airport on my way to Vietnam for vacation. But my body had other ideas. My heart stopped. And when I collapsed from my heart stopping, I hit my head and received a pretty serious brain injury. After 59 minutes of CPR, I was rushed to a nearby hospital. It turns out that the hospital closest to Singapore airport is one of the best heart hospitals in the world.
I was in the hospital for two weeks, including several days of complete sedation so the swelling in my brain could go down. When I was discharged from the hospital, I was in a wheelchair. My brain wasn’t quite working right, as it continued to heal. By then, Sherilyn, my spouse, had arrived. We couldn’t go home until the doctors said my brain was well enough healed to travel by air. So we were stuck in Singapore for a few weeks.

Jars of Clay
| The Rev. Dr. Herschel Wade
Jars of Clay
We will follow him. And we will proclaim Jesus as Lord
because it is through him that we obtain true life and true freedom. And it is through him that we are forgiven. And it is through him that we are adopted as
God's own. And as heirs to the promises
of God. For Paul, it is important that
we as Christians proclaim not ourselves,
but to proclaim Jesus as Lord and ourselves as only faithful servants as
messengers or even errand runners of Jesus. Like Paul who gave of himself for the sake of Jesus.
Give of ourselves for the sake of Jesus Who is at the heart of the Gospel? As God has given Paul the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus God has done the same for us, so that we see God's glory in Jesus and point to others, not to ourselves, But only to Christ. And in doing so, we affirm God's light, which has continued to shine out of darkness.
This message of God's kingdom, Paul sort of equates with a treasure. We are given this treasure, he says, in clay jars. They're not placed in gold vessels. But in clay jars, which are cheap and fragile and symbolize our mortality and corruptibility,

Are We There Yet?
| The Rev. Joanna Leiserson
Are We There Yet?
I think we are all familiar with “Are we there yet?” In fact, I can’t help thinking that the question, so familiar to family travelers, is an inborn genetic trait that is triggered one hour after the car leaves the driveway. Sometimes children even make a repetitive chant out of it, thus increasing its output a hundredfold before the parents put a stop to the noise. When I was young, my mom and dad piled me and my brother and sister into the car, and we headed out on our first trip to Disneyland in Anaheim, 400 miles from home, or eighty hundred miles if you’re a kid.
After about 20 minutes traveling and every five minutes thereafter, we children asked the question that seems to be imbedded in all children’s DNA, to be turned on when they go on trips: Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Finally, my father said, “When you see Sleeping Beauty Castle, you’ll know.” Finally, it happened. An eternal seven hours later, Sleeping Beauty Castle loomed up next to the freeway, and we knew. There was the Magic Kingdom. The final destination on our journey isn’t the Magic Kingdom; it’s the heavenly Kingdom of God. And our landing spot isn’t Sleeping Beauty Castle. Instead, our new home will be what Paul calls “God’s building” and what Jesus calls “my Father’s house” with many rooms, where Jesus promised there is a place prepared for each of us.

WLSU, The First Time
| The Rev. Philip DeVaul
WLSU, The First Time
I went to Italy for the first time in February of 2000. I was a 20-year-old Junior in college, and I was minoring in Italian. I had no Italian ancestry, and no cultural obsession with Italy or the Roman Empire. I was not in love with an Italian coed. I tell you this only because these are all the questions I get asked when I mention studying Italian.
My reasons for studying Italian were much more capricious. I had taken Spanish, German, and Japanese classes at different points growing up, and heading to college I decided I wanted to try a new language. I also decided that I should try to become fluent in whatever language I chose. I was 18 when I decided this. I did not expect to advance any specific career or spiritual goal. I just wanted to be able to watch the Godfather movies without subtitles, and to listen to Italian-American singer Louis Prima and know what he was singing half the time. This was the depth of my decision making.
During my sophomore year it became apparent that studying abroad for at least a semester was an expectation, so I set about looking at programs in Italy, and settled on one in the Northeastern city of Padova (we English speakers call it Padua) because all the classes were taught in Italian, and they had no lessons on Fridays, so students could have long weekends to travel.
