The Rev. Dr. Dan De Leon, our Senior Pastor, delivers a message reflecting on Genesis 33:1-11, titled “Reconciling a Misogynistic Mess" on the Twenty-First Sunday after Pentecost.
A brief synopsis:
In this sermon, the Rev. Dr. Dan De Leon explores the biblical story of Jacob and Esau, emphasizing themes of reconciliation over judgment. He highlights the historical conflict between the brothers and contrasts it with their eventual reunion, which signifies the possibility of forgiveness and healing. De Leon critiques societal issues such as misogyny and cultural norms that perpetuate judgment, advocating for a church that values reconciliation and compassion. He encourages vulnerability, honesty, and humility as essential for addressing systemic injustices and fostering understanding. Through personal anecdotes, he illustrates the importance of recognizing diverse family structures and the need for the church to engage actively in promoting human dignity and justice. The sermon concludes with a prayer for grace and respect in relationships across gender lines.
