The HeartBeat

A Message from Pastor Jeff

Christ is risen! He is Risen Indeed!

Pastor Jeff LilleyIn 2008 Garrison Keillor wrote an article about his Holy Week and Easter experience. He confessed to having “weaselish thoughts” about the whole affair and entertaining a certain skepticism as he sat in his pew singing “O sacred head now wounded.” He mused,

“Holy Week is a good time to face up to the question: Do we really believe in that story, or do we just like to hang out with nice people and listen to organ music? There are advantages, after all, to being in the neighborhood of people who love their neighbors. If your car won’t start on a cold morning, you’ve got friends.”

One can certainly understand how the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection might seem fantastic or even a fairy tale. Yet, each Easter morning, Christians around the world gather to proclaim that ancient truth, “Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!” Are we victims of a mass deception, rubes for jokers of history who planted a cosmic joke and watched as the world slipped on a religious banana peel? Or is there something real there?

Keillor may be, in some subtle way, asking the wrong question. He queries, “Do we really believe in that story?” He wonders if the story—or even the whole Biblical narrative—is true, or at least factual. The resurrection goes against much of our modern scientific knowledge, there doesn’t seem to be a great deal of non-biblical historical documentation about the events of Holy Week and Easter, and it just seems a little far-fetched. Such questions are healthy and needed fodder for reflection in the modern Christian community.

But it is not the story in which we believe, but God’s presence with us in a unique and continuing way, and the promise that the story delivers as we hear about Jesus. The story of Holy Week draws us again and again into the truth of a God who chooses to be engaged with God’s people in a life-and-death drama of love. It is not the story we believe in; rather, we believe God’s promise to “tabernacle with us” in Spirit, in Christ, in the cross, and in the body of Christ we call the Church. The fundamental question to ask while singing “O sacred head now wounded” is “Do we believe God?”

The answer is more important and thoughtful than a simple “yes” or “no.” As we sing the hymns and hear the story, we are called to ponder how this fantastic tale calls us to live a life that is true. We are led to wonder how the unthinkable and almost obscene actions of Holy Week, which culminate in the joy of Easter, might lead us to love those who are un-loveable, serve those who we do not know, and feed those who hunger for food, companionship, and hope. We might even wonder how, in light of God’s unfolding story, we might engage the world in a new and just fashion where love is a watchword and peace is a welcomed commodity. Some may be skeptical of the story, but the story’s truth is transformative and powerful.

Garrison Keillor ends his article with,

“Skepticism is a stimulant, not to be repressed. It is an antidote to smugness and the great glow of satisfaction one gains from being right. You know the self-righteous—I’ve been one myself —the little extra topspin they put on the truth, their ostentatious modesty, the pleasure they take in being beautifully modulated and cool and correct when others are falling apart. Jesus was rougher on those people than He was on the adulterers and prostitutes. So I will sit in the doubter’s chair for a while and see what is to be learned back there.”

There is much to learn, and it begins with the proclamation, “Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!”

Seder Meal–March 28th

Come join the children

On March 28th (Palm Sunday) at 9:15 between services, the children of the Sunday school will again host a Seder meal in Isenberg Hall. This is a traditional part of our Easter preparation in the Lutheran Church of Honolulu. The Seder meal is the meal of Passover Jesus was celebrating with his followers when he first gave us the Eucharist. It is the Old Testament remembrance of God’s special relationship with his people and his freeing of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. Come learn more on the 28th.

What’s New on the LCH Website?

Bill Potter, Webmaster

Bill PotterThere have been a number of additions to the website over the past month documenting the life of our congregation. Check out the Congregational Life page for pictures and stories about Bach Vespers on March 7, the congregational work day on March 13, and First Communion Class on March 14. One new feature of these stories is that each has links to additional pictures on the LCH Facebook page. The pictures of the children making communion bread from First Communion Class are particularly cute.

With Holy Week and Easter coming up, you’ll want to keep track of all the special services. A special page describes all of these services with links to the detailed listing of lessons and special music. The page is available via the Worship page or a link on the left side of the Home page.

The big web-related news has been the growth of our Facebook page, which Rusty Walker wrote about in the March HeartBeat. Our number of fans has grown from just over 20 at the end of January to almost 90 at the end of March. At the same time, activity on the page has increased significantly. Fans of the page are posting about their thoughts and experiences, we are listing upcoming events, and there are additional pictures from our life together.

In case you don’t know it, anyone who is a fan of our LCH Facebook page is able to post on the “wall” of the page. Unlike posts by page administrators (which have our LCH logo), fan posts show up under the name and icon of the poster. These posts let casual visitors see how many people are involved in the congregation, the range of interests and involvements of our members, and the joy we share.

The Facebook (FB) Team encourages everyone to visit our Facebook page by typing in <LCHFacebook.com> or using the link on the Home page or the Social Networking page on our website. Once you’re there, become a fan and add your ideas to this community of LCHers. If you want to become even more involved, please consider committing to posting on a regular basis, sharing your photographs, or becoming a member of the FB Team.

ELCA Releases Draft Social Statement on Genetics

CHICAGO (ELCA)—The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America released March 18 a 49-page draft social statement on genetics, a framework for discussion on a variety of current topics in the field including certain advances in medicine, reproductive cloning, human embryonic stem cells, and animal and plant genetic engineering.

The full text of the Draft Social Statement on Genetics, an executive summary and a question-and-answer document are at <www.elca.org/geneticsdraft> on the ELCA Web site.

The draft was prepared by the ELCA Task Force on Genetics, formed after the social statement was authorized by the 2005 ELCA Churchwide Assembly. Individuals and congregations are invited to study and discuss the draft, and provide feedback to the task force by October 15. The draft will be revised based on the feedback, and a proposed social statement is to be released in February 2011.

The ELCA Church Council, the church’s board of directors and interim legislative authority between churchwide assemblies, will review the draft in April 2011, said the Rev. Rebecca S. Larson, executive director, ELCA Church in Society. The council has the responsibility for placing the final text of a social statement on the agenda of a churchwide assembly, she said. The next assembly is in August 2011.

ELCA social statements are theological and teaching documents. They assist the ELCA and its members to reach informed decisions on social issues from a faith perspective. Social statements set policy for the ELCA, and guide its advocacy and work as a public church.

In November 2008 the task force released a study document, Genetics and Faith: Power, Choice and Responsibility, and invited comment. Task force members consulted with ethicists, scientists, sociologists, theologians and others to prepare the study and the draft.

“The draft is not so much a list of specific decisions on particular genetic issues as it is a framework to discuss specific topics,” said Janet Williams, a genetics counselor, Salt Lake City, and task force co-chair. “My hope is that it actually does generate discussion and a recognition that these topics are important.”

The document was carefully crafted, she said, noting that the task force is a diverse group of agribusiness professionals, clergy, ethicists, physicians, researchers, teachers and theologians. “As we came to the end of the draft process, we were very pleased with how we as a group had debated and reached a consensus on the specific set of diverse topics that were critical to include in this draft,” Williams said.

“This document tries to formulate a moral framework that can encompass questions about human \truly Christian in the 21st century,” he added.

The draft has five general themes, said the Rev. Roger A. Willer, director, Department for Studies, ELCA Church in Society:

  • Christians view genetic developments in light of God’s work “that is ever creative and steadfast”
  • Humans are responsible as “imaginative stewards,” called to dedicate themselves to the flourishing of the creation
  • Ethics in genetic advances requires respect and promotion of the community of life with justice and wisdom
  • The ELCA is called to be a community that engages public issues intentionally and deliberatively while supporting “with care and respect” individuals who must make difficult decisions
  • The draft offers broad convictions regarding genetic developments and discusses how those convictions relate to a few particular advances in medicine, stem cell research and genetic engineering of plants, animals and humans “In this 21st century the church’s trust exists not in human achievements, but in the Triune God who creates, redeems and will finish making all things new. This One is the source of Christian confidence to live boldly in these times; it is a confidence that runs from the beginning to the end of faith and responsibility in any age,” the draft concluded.

Heavenly Humor

Cartoon: Pastor talks about sacred time before Easter, and you thinks it's spring break'

Cartoon: Boss to worker: You have health insurance, and now you want a salary?Out of the Mouths of God’s Kids

On Palm Sunday at Allin Congregational Church in Dedham, MA, a three-year-old boy who was in church for the first time sat quietly listening to a soloist singing “Ride On, King Jesus.”

When she finished, everyone sat in appreciative silence. Suddenly, the child’s voice resounded through the church with a rousing but altogether appropriate, “Yeah!” The spontaneous roar of the congregation’s laughter quickly turned into enthusiastic applause.

—via Harry Mahoney
Dedham, MA

On the way to church Easter morning, a four-year-old girl explained to her aunt that at her church “there are envelopes and little pencils to write with, but you have to leave a tip.”

—via Jeff Totten
Lake Charles, LA

On Palm Sunday, a five-year-old boy had to stay home with a sore throat and missed church.

When the family returned home, they were carrying several palm branches. When the boy asked what the branches were for, his mother told him, “People held them over Jesus’ head as He walked by.”

“Wouldn’t you know it!” the boy fumed. “The one Sunday I don’t go, He shows up!”

—Columnist Smiley Anders
Baton Rouge (LA) Advocate

After church, an eight-year-old boy told his little brother: “I don’t know all the Ten Commandments. The only ones I remember are 'settle down,’ 'act your age,’ and 'take that out of your mouth.’”

Advice from a little girl to her small sister: “Remember the two places you are always welcome—church and Grandma’s house.”

—Suzan, age 9
