In the dark of the moon,
in flying snow,
in the dead of winter,
war spreading,
families dying,
the world in danger,

I walk the rocky hillsides sowing clover.

Wendell Berry

This my favorite poem describing who we are as Christians. Though there are many events in the world around us that could distract us, we are focused on “the rocky hillside” that is our responsibility, and on sowing the seeds of the Gospel. Because that’s who we are. And who I hope we at St Luke Church can continue to be.
