Sermon September 15, 2013 – Small Is The New Black

In this week's sermon, I ponder this image taken at last week's 4th Annual Oxford Presbytery Softball Tournament and this little girl's journey to making it to first base.  Her experience and triumph became the triumph of both teams playing, and all people watching!  I had a prof at Queen's Theological College, Bill Morrow, who used to say, 'The presence of the Holy Spirit was in inverse proportion to the number of people present.'  Small is good.  The message was clear.  I used to think he was talking about people at church... but perhaps he was also talking about little people running to first base.  Perhaps small rural schools are also a place the Holy Spirit dwells in abundance.  Jesus in this week's scripture points out the importance of searching out one small sheep from a flock of 100.  Small can not only be good... it's can be divine!
