SERMON: “Times of Refreshing”
Here’s an interesting bit of Biblical trivia. According to the Revised Common Lectionary, the church calendar of readings, which we use, the first reading ends with a comma. That in itself is odd, but what’s really curious is that according to the Biblical translation that one uses, the t last verse of Acts 3:19 continues, so that it ends with a complete sentence, using what our translation, the NRSV has as the beginning of verse 3:20. We heard Peter’s address to the amazed Jews of his time to end with “Repent therefore, and turn to God so that your sins may be wiped out,” and yet the old KJV continues the thought to read, “Repent ye therefore,
and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.” The NASB is similar but reads, “Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.”
It's particularly interesting not only because of the anomaly of the verse, but also because the missing “times of refreshing” is clearly what the Lectionary folks had in mind for it fills out the thought in a more compelling and desirable way. For any weary people in a weary land living through weary times, “times of refreshing” is
especially desirable.
As you note, for the apostles and those who tell their story (including us), the post-resurrection time moves to consider the what next after Jesus rises from the dead. Consequently, we get a bit of shift of focus. Now it'snot directly on Jesus, not on the empty tomb, not on Mary or the women or the angels, but on the bigger picture: the happenings outside that garden cemetery, and beyond Calvary. We get to consider what happens as we move beyond the earliest hours of that grand and first day of the week when Jesus rose from the dead and into the times ahead, and how it still applies to us and to all.
The first reading leading to those times of refreshing is paired with our dramatic Gospel lesson from Luke. We, too, are to consider that moment. Put yourself in the scene. There you are in that room, you as anapostle, in likely the very room in the same house where we would usually meet. But now it's different, Jesus
has been crucified, murdered, and buried. Meanwhile, we've been in hiding. However, now, there's a new and strange development: For now, we've heard the odd reports about the empty tomb. What we do? Where
do we go? The conversations on that first Easter day must have quite electric. And within the bounds of imagined conversations there's one version with a bit of a joke. Peter says, "So I got some good news and some bad news. The good news is: Jesus is risen from the dead. The bad news is, he's still really ticked about Friday." The odd joke is rather clever, because when we think about it, there could be a little truth it. Seriously, if wewere in Jesus' place wouldn't we perhaps be a little annoyed? Just consider how long you've stayed angry, or let's say, "perturbed" about the least little thing. We get ticked at the inappropriate comment over the important dinner, or the failure of the other to listen to what you're saying, or the what your friend told another, or the fact that your kid or partner didn't take your call and then took forever to get back to you. We are indeed capable of holding onto lots of hurts and grudges for considerably longer than just a couple of days. And this was no little thing. Jesus was betrayed, arrested, beaten, and then brutally crucified; meanwhile,
those who dearly loved him most, his closest friends, the apostles, abandoned him. Now if we imagine ourselves as among of the faithful apostles, we would be well aware of that fact... that we were among those who abandoned him. We ran away and were nowhere to be seen once the going got not only rough by ugly
with a capitol U. Yet just then, as you, one of the faithful albeit fearful apostles, are all wrapped in uncertainty, in worry and needless anxiety about the what happened, and what's next, and the what do we do now, Jesus enters in. And he says, "peace be with you." Not "What the heck is wrong with you people? Where have you been?" But, "Peace be with you."
Then he says, "hey, chill out and believe." Okay, not quite in those words but close; consider it Today's Modern Version. And he adds, "See for yourselves. Have a feel if you like."And then as they struggle to piece this whole thing together, or as Luke puts it, "While in their joy they were disbelieving and still wondering," Jesus says to them, "You got anything to eat?" (again, in Today's Modern Version).
I love that. I don't know about you, but in my house when friends come over, it's not rare that one of them will ask me something akin to that; although it's usually when they're standing in front of my now open refrigerator and they say, "mind if I have a pickle?" or "Oh, great you have olives," or "I'm having some salami." And you know, if they were ticked at you at all, that's not how they'd be. There's real grace in eating
with friends, and it tends to be the best time to hash things out and let things go.
Anyway, moving on, Jesus munches on a piece of fish, and fills them in. "He opened their minds to understand the scriptures." Finally, they get it. After all the recent heartbreak and ugliness, the fights and the fury, Jesus comes. The peace-bringer. The consummate friend. The teacher, the illuminator. And they get it. They get it all. The time of refreshing has come. And then Luke underlines three main points: the fulfillment of scripture, the needed action, based on what the resurrection means in the reality of now, and who these folk, the listeners, are:
First is that in the fulfillment of scripture “the Messiah is to suffer and to rise from the dead on the third day;” then comes the big Second: “that repentance and forgiveness of sins is to be proclaimed in his name to all nations” and finally there is the third point: You are witnesses of these things."
The biggie is that repentance and forgiveness of sins that is to be proclaimed all over. That is to say, "Look, everyone makes mistakes, takes missteps, everyone sins." Get over yours and those of others. Turn it around. Repent. And proclaim forgiveness, forgiveness which not only comes from God, but includes you. With that
turn-around and forgiveness times of refreshing will come.As witnesses, you, the faithful apostles, have heard it, understood it and now you need to embrace it.
Then with the other reading we get more of what that means, complete with some amazing stuff. The apostlesget busy and they do some remarkable things. Their deeds are captured in Acts. There's also good teaching,but it still sounds, at least to the modern ear -- according to what we read from Acts -- that there might be
some residual blame or lack of forgiveness, especially toward the Jews. Luke the author of Acts, quotes Peter as saying, "But you rejected the Holy and Righteous One and asked to have a murderer given to you, and you killed the Author of life."
Fortunately, he adds the qualifier, "And now, friends, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did also your rulers." Friends, he calls them friends. And then he does what Jesus told him, he preaches repentance with the assurance of forgiveness. He tells them about the true possibility of times of refreshing.” (And what problems our world has seen, especially as illustrated by the death camps of WWII, because such
understanding and compassion toward the Jews was not embraced and extended.)
The call for them, the earliest disciples, and for us, is to move ahead, beyond the resurrection moment, with genuine grace. To move on with grace. Grace to believe, to let go of all fear and doubt, all shame and grief . Grace to embrace change, the heart of repentance, in the ever-changing world that, yes, is still a bit of a weary
and scary place. It’s the proclamation of grace to forgive and to be forgiven. Grace to embrace joy and to embrace others as friends, as family, and grace to proclaim, He is risen! Alleluia. It is only when we move ahead with the grace of forgiveness and the spirit of renewed joy can "times of refreshing," times of renewal, and of genuine blessing truly come to us, God's Easter people.

SERMON: “The Easter Laugh”
Yes, it’s Bright Sunday, the Sunday we set aside for jokes and fun in celebration of the old theology that God pulled the greatest practical joke even, when God tricked Satan into believing that with the death of Jesus, goodness had finally been defeated -- and then, with the resurrection of Jesus, God defeated and
shamed Satan proving the victor of death and of all the forces of evil forever.
In late medieval Europe, priests provoked the laughter of their congregations on Easter Day by telling crude jokes, making obscene gestures, and putting on slapstick comedic performances. According to one contemporary witness, preachers often spiced up these occasions by pitting husbands and wives against
each other. (Fear not, we won’t have any of that.)Ironically, the most detailed accounts of this practice survive in the writings of its staunchest critics
across northern Europe. Yet by expressing their outrage in letters and theological treatises, those who tried so desperately to cancel this popular custom preserved knowledge of it for posterity.
The early Christian tradition of risus paschalis -- the Easter Laugh -- is now still celebrated by many churches, yet we do so on the first Sunday after Easter, and it’s dubbed Bright Sunday. But I will tell you that the obscenity and crudeness, is kept to a bare minimum.
For example, consider this:
Two hillbillies walk into a restaurant. While having a bit to eat, they talk about their moonshine operation. Suddenly, a woman at a nearby table, who is eating a sandwich begins to cough.After a minute or so, it becomes apparent that she in in real distress. One of the hillbillies looks at her and say “Kin ya swallar?” The woman shakes her head no. Then he asks, “Kin ya breathe?” The woman begins to turn blue and shakes her head no.
The hillbilly walks over to the woman, lifts up her dress, yanks down her drawers, and quickly gives her right butt cheek a lick with his tongue. The woman is so shocked she has a violent spasm and shoots the obstruction out of her mouth.
As she starts to breathe again, they walk back to their table, and the one hillbilly says to the hero: “Ya know, I heerd of that there Hind Lick maneuver, but I ain’t never seen nobody do it.”
That’s about as dirty as they come. Hillbillies and rednecks are easy to pick on. Consider:
What's the most popular pick-up line in Alabama?
Nice tooth!
Emily Sue passed away and Bubba called 911. The 911 operator told Bubba that she would send someone out right away. "Where do you live?" asked the operator. Bubba replied, "At the end of Eucalyptus Drive." The operator asked, "Can you spell that for me? "There was a long pause and finally Bubba said, "How 'bout if I drag her over to Oak Street and you pick her up there?"
How do you know when you're staying in a Kentucky hotel? When you call the front desk and say "I've gotta leak in my sink" and the person at the front desk says "go ahead."
How can you tell if a Texas redneck is married?
There is dried chewing tobacco on both sides of his pickup truck.
Of course, blonds also make easy targets for jokes.
A painting contractor was speaking with a woman about her job. In the first room she said she would like a pale blue. The contractor wrote this down and went to the window, opened it, and yelled out,
"GREEN SIDE UP!"
In the second room she told the painter she would like it painted in a soft yellow. He wrote this on his pad, walked to the window, opened it, and yelled, "GREEN SIDE UP!"
The lady was somewhat curious, but she said nothing. In the third room she said she would like it painted a warm rose color. The painter wrote this down, walked to the window, opened it and again yelled, "GREEN SIDE UP!"
The lady then asked him, "Why do you keep yelling 'green side up'?" "I'm sorry," came the reply. "But I have a crew of blondes laying sod across the street."
A blond takes her new Corvette (bright red, of course) out for a ride and before long get to going way too fast. As it happens, a blond cop, of close to the same age, is on patrol that day and pulls over the speeding blond.
“License and registration, please.”
The blond driver was obviously a bit puzzled as she looked through her purse. “Could you tell me what a license looks like?"
The cop answered, “It’s about so big, and has a picture of you on it.”
The blond continued to dig through her purse and comes upon a small compact mirror. She hands it to the cop.
The blond cop takes the mirror, looks at it, and gives it back to the blond driver.
“Oh, sorry.” She said. “I didn’t know you were a cop.”
--
Cop stories too seem to be popular. How about:
While traveling home from a business trip a man traveling at 60 miles an hour in a 45 mile an hour zone topped a hill just in time to see a state trooper turn on his flashing red and blue lights. As the police car pulled out behind the man's car the man thought to himself, "I can out run this guy," and increased his speed to 70 miles an hour.
With the police car still in pursuit he accelerated to 80, then 90, then 100 miles an hour. Before long he decided it was of no hope and pulled over to the side of the road. The officer walked up to the side of the man's vehicle and shouted, "I have had a very bad day and am in no mood to stand out here in this heat giving you a ticket. Just give me a good reason why you were driving so fast and I'll let you go."
The man thought for a minute, then said, "Well, officer, my wife left me about three weeks ago for a state trooper. When I saw your lights come on, I thought you were him and you were trying to bring her back."
The officer let him go.
---
Of course there are also the knock-knock jokes. Here’s a different kind of one of those:
A man hears a knock at the door.
"Hi, my name's Joe, I'm here to get Flo. We're going to the show, is she ready to go?"
The man chuckles and calls his daughter.
Flo runs out the door, and she and Joe leave.
Knock at the door.
"Hi, my name's Eddy, I'm here to get Betty. We're gonna go eat some spaghetti. Is she ready?"
This time the man starts cracking up, but he still calls his daughter, and she and Eddy leave.
Knock Knock.
"Hi, my names Buck."
The man slams the door shut.
Reinhold Niebuhr is remembered for saying, "Humor is a prelude to faith and laughter is the beginning of prayer." And, even as the Bible tell us part of the purpose of sharing the Good News is that one's joy can be complete. Yet the older we get, the harder it seems to have a good hardy laugh. And so Michael Pritchard's line is well apt, "You don’t stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing."
RECEPTION OF NEW MEMBERS: Meaghan and Erik Howard
OUR ORDER OF COMMUNION
THE INVITATION AND TIME OF CONFESSION:
❖ Call to Confession
❖ Silent Confession
❖ Unison Prayer of Confession:
We have come to your temple, loving God, because this is
your place, not ours. We confess that we sometimes forget
whose house this is. We forget that all the world belongs to
you as we scramble for all we can claim for ourselves. Our
actions deny your love, which is at the heart of your perfect
law. Our minds have justified the bending and breaking of
your law to suit current trends and feelings. We cry out for
forgiveness and the opportunity for a fresh start. Clear us
of hidden faults and redeem us from those we recognize and onfess. Amen.
❖ Words of Assurance
THANKSGIVING:
Pastor: The Lord be with you.
People: And also with you.
Pastor: Lift up your hearts.
People: We lift them up to the Lord.
Pastor: Let us give thanks to God Most High.
People: It is right to give God thanks and praise.
Pastor: We give you thanks, God of majesty and mercy,
for calling forth the creation and raising us from dust
by the breath of your being.
We bless you for the beauty and bounty of the earth and for the vision of the day when
sharing by all will mean scarcity for none.
We remember the covenant you made with your people Israel, and we give you thanks for all our ancestors in faith.
We rejoice that you call us to reconciliation with you and all people everywhere and that you remain faithful to your covenant even when we are faithless.
We rejoice that you call the entire human family to this table of sacrifice and victory.
We come in remembrance and celebration of the gift of Jesus Christ, whom you sent, in the fullness of time, to be the good news.
Born of Mary, our sister in faith, Christ lived among us to reveal the mystery of your Word, to suffer and die on the cross for us, to be raised from death on the third day, and then to live in glory.
We bless you, gracious God, for the presence of your Holy Spirit in the church you have
gathered. With your sons and daughters of faith in all places and times, we praise you with joy as we say together:
All: Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts,
Heaven and earth are full of Thy glory,
Hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is the One who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest.
WORDS OF INSTITUTION AND COMMUNAL PROCLAMATION:
Pastor: We remember that on the night of betrayal and desertion,
and on the eve of death, Jesus gathered the disciples for a shared meal of preparation.
Jesus took bread, and after giving thanks to God, broke it, and gave it to the disciples,
saying: “This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”
In the same way, he took the cup after supper.
Again he gave God thanks and praise and said:
“This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as
often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.”
Therefore, we proclaim the mystery of our faith:
All: Christ’s death, O God we proclaim.
Christ’s resurrection we declare.
Christ’s coming, we await.
Glory be to you, O God.
PRAYERS OF CONSECRATION:
Pastor: Eternal God, we unite in this covenant of faith, recalling Christ’s suffering and death,
rejoicing in Christ’s resurrection, and awaiting Christ’s return in victory. We spread your
table with these gifts of the earth and of our labor. We present to you our very lives,
committed to your service on behalf of all people. We ask you to send your Holy Spirit
upon this bread and wine, upon our gifts, and upon us. Strengthen your universal church that it may be the champion of peace and justice in all the world. Restore the earth with your grace that is able to make all things new.
ALL: Be present with us as we share this meal,
and throughout all our lives, that we may know you as
the Holy One, who with Christ and the Holy Spirit,
lives forever. Amen.
SHARING THE BREAD AND CUP:
Pastor: Alleluia! Christ our Passover is offered for us.
People: Therefore, let us keep the feast.
Pastor: The gifts of God for the people of God.
We celebrate the grace of God in our midst.
(Please wait until all have been served and we’ll ingest together)
UNISON PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING:
We give you thanks, Almighty God, that you have refreshed us at your table through the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. Continue to heal us, we pray, and strengthen our faith. Increase our love for one another, and send us forth into the world in courage and peace, rejoicing in the power of the Holy Spirit; we ask these things in the Name of Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen.
