The Cornerstone

“While we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone of this building today and while we will spend this year of commemoration, reflection and celebration telling wonderful and sometimes painful stories … what has made this space sacred and what continues to make this space sacred has nothing to do with the bricks and mortar and glass.  It’s us. And a hundred years of people like us – sanctifying this space with our struggle. Sanctifying the space with our truths … even and especially when they might not agree. Sanctifying this space with our laughter and our tears. With our triumphs and our failures. With our living and with our dying.” Sermon by Mike Kinman from worship at 10:00 a.m. on Cornerstone Sunday, October 8, 2023 at All Saints Church, Pasadena. Readings: Psalm 27:1-10, 13-14 and Matthew 25:31-46. Watch the sermon on YouTube. Read a text of the sermon here.    Follow All Saints Church on Twitter @ASCpas.
