Thirty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time, Cycle B<\/em>
\n Old St. Patrick’s Church, Chicago<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My sermon preparation this past week<\/p>\n

Took an abrupt turn on Friday afternoon
\nWhen the first news of the terrorist attacks in Paris
\nBegan cascading across western media.<\/p>\n

By now you know the specifics<\/p>\n

6 coordinated attacks by 8 terrorists
\nKalashnikov machine guns … identical suicide bombs
\nAt least 129 dead
\n352 wounded<\/p>\n

And the city of light – my home for two years<\/p>\n

plunged into darkness<\/p>\n

not from a hurricane or earthquake
\nTsunami or other natural disaster<\/p>\n

But from a partial eclipse of humanity<\/p>\n

Rising from an abyss of cruel and vile hatred<\/p>\n

some tragic irony that these appalling atrocities<\/p>\n

Occurred in the shadow of today\u2019s texts
\nthat portend of an end time
\na moment of unspeakable tribulation<\/p>\n

marked by the darkening of the sun and moon
\nthe obliteration of every celestial body
\nand the disruption of heavenly powers.<\/p>\n

The conjunction of Paris and the gospel of Mark<\/p>\n

Isis and the 33rd Sunday in ordinary time
\nmakes me wonder … and maybe you as well
\nWhether that time has come and the end is<\/u><\/em><\/strong> near …
\nAt least the end of humanity and civility as I imagine it<\/p>\n

The text from Mark at the center of today\u2019s readings<\/p>\n

sometimes called the \u201clittle apocalypse\u201d<\/p>\n

might sound quite oxymoronic …
\nAt least incongruous if not contradictory<\/p>\n

This passage in Mark, with parallels in Matthew and Luke<\/p>\n

Is called the little<\/strong> apocalypse
\nIn contrast with the great apocalypse narrated<\/p>\n

In the book of Revelation
\nWith its often impenetrable images
\nOf crisis, judgment and salvation<\/p>\n

this designation \u201clittle apocalypse\u201d is a reminder,<\/p>\n

as one commentator mused,
\nthat apocalypses do not come in only one size<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Over the decades … over the centuries<\/p>\n

Human kind has witnessed many apocalyptic sieges
\nIn past 100 years alone<\/p>\n

sometimes described as the most violent in human history<\/p>\n

we witnessed the annihilation of 6 million Jews in holocaust<\/p>\n

And 66 million other victims of World War II<\/p>\n

Then there were genocides in Armenia, Cambodia and Rwanda<\/p>\n

Juxtaposed with these towering narrations<\/p>\n

of inhumanity to humanity<\/p>\n

Are the \u201cquote unquote\u201d<\/p>\n

little<\/strong> apocalypses that make us gasp in horror
\nA German airbus whose descent into hell<\/p>\n

found its resolution on a French mountainside<\/p>\n

The attack on the French magazine Charlie Hebdo<\/p>\n

That snuffed out the lives
\nOf 12 beloved artists and social commentators<\/p>\n

The execution of journalists displayed for the world to see<\/p>\n

In the most brutal of ways<\/p>\n

And on our own streets, in our own city<\/p>\n

Too much repugnance to enumerate<\/p>\n

Especially the slaying of the lambs
\nThe killing of the innocent<\/p>\n

Including the recent revenge execution<\/p>\n

of a 9 year old boy … a 9 year old boy!<\/p>\n

Maybe the state of the world today<\/p>\n

Is that we do and always will live in apocalypse now …<\/p>\n

Not only with man\u2019s inhumanity to man on a global scale
\nBut in those micro-apocalypses of our lives<\/p>\n

When love evaporates, the diagnosis returns<\/p>\n

And especially when the beloved, the spouse, the child dies<\/p>\n

And our universe collapses<\/p>\n

Aren\u2019t the faces that radiate back to us<\/p>\n

from our own shrine of remembrance
\nOur own altar of the dead<\/p>\n

Isn\u2019t each a testimony to such micro-apocalypses<\/p>\n

The upended of life as we knew it
\nas the stars fell from the skies
\nand our universe, as we knew it, came to an end.<\/p>\n

So maybe it is not just the state of devolving humanity<\/p>\n

In the present age …<\/p>\n

But the very nature of human existence itself<\/p>\n

That always and forever
\nEmbroils us in an apocalypse now.<\/p>\n

And what do we do in the face of such carnage<\/p>\n

Such inhumanity, such insanity, such brokenness, loss and grief?<\/p>\n

Do we only have recourse childhood prayers<\/p>\n

Evoked by the first reading from Daniel
\nand pray as I did in the 1950\u2019s<\/p>\n

ironically for the conversion of Russia:<\/p>\n

St. Michael the archangel, defend us in battle …<\/p>\n

defend us in battle
\ndefend us in battle<\/p>\n

I recount this macro and micro apocalyptic litany<\/p>\n

Not to scare or depress
\nNot to alarm or demoralize …<\/p>\n

But to stir the ashes of loss
\nTo fan embers that fade
\nIn order to incite the promised phoenix of hope<\/p>\n

That we name God\u2019s Holiest of Spirits<\/p>\n

that resides in us individually and collectively
\nPersonally and ecclesially<\/p>\n

To stir that phoenix to take wing<\/p>\n

not despite our gloom but within it<\/p>\n

So that God\u2019s holy hope might surge<\/p>\n

Not only in solace
\nBut also in mission<\/strong><\/p>\n

Passages like the one we hear today from Mark\u2019s gospel<\/p>\n

convince many scripture scholars
\nThat Jesus, like John the Baptist before him<\/p>\n

was a kind of apocalyptic prophet<\/p>\n

that does not mean that they were predicting the end of time<\/p>\n

prophets of global cataclysm …
\nwhich would be a misguided interpretation of today\u2019s text<\/p>\n

Rather, Jesus, like the Baptist was an apocalyptic prophets<\/p>\n

In the sense that he was expecting
\nAn abrupt and decisive change in the world
\nWhat the gospels characterize
\nAs the inbreaking of God\u2019s reign in the world<\/p>\n

That is evidenced in Jesus\u2019 first words in the gospel of Mark
\nChapter 1, verse 14:<\/p>\n

The time has come
\nThe kingdom of god has come near
\nRepeat and believe the good news.<\/p>\n

Mark twain once remarked that what he called<\/p>\n

The \u201chuman race experiment\u201d
\nIs either unfinished or hopeless.<\/p>\n

The Jesus data does not, in my opinion, opt for hopelessness
\nRather … the Jesus agenda was all about
\nEngaging humanity in the unfinished business of creation<\/p>\n

Fred Craddock was a celebrated professor<\/p>\n

Of preaching and New Testament at Emory University<\/p>\n

When pondering apocalyptic literature<\/p>\n

And coaching preachers how to approach
\nTexts such as today\u2019s<\/p>\n

This prudent and savvy believer wisely noted:<\/p>\n

\u201cmaybe people are obsessed with the second coming
\nBecause, deep down,
\nThey were really disappointed in the first one.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bam!<\/p>\n

In the face of the Parisian apocalypse<\/p>\n

And those micro-apocalypses that punctuate our lives
\nThe liturgy goads us into remembering
\nThat Jesus\u2019 very birth … his incarnation
\nWas an apocalypse as well … and for Christians<\/p>\n

The decisive one.<\/p>\n

While in the popular imagination apocalypse denotes<\/p>\n

widespread destruction or disaster
\nthat is not its original meaning.<\/p>\n

In Greek, which I recognize 2 out of 3 times,<\/p>\n

Apocalupsis <\/em>means an uncovering, a divulging
\nPulling back the veil on a larger, cosmic framework
\nIn order to impart wisdom, meaning and especially hope
\nTo a people who are currently suffering or oppressed<\/p>\n

Jesus was a gifted and determined veil puller<\/p>\n

Curtain raiser – Scene changer – And situational critic<\/p>\n

His own birth, the first apocalypse, symbolizes that gift
\nFor in assuming flesh, Jesus with the Godhead proclaimed<\/p>\n

Things are changing
\nThere is a shockingly new divine divulgence here
\nAnd that is that people matter …
\nEver person matters …
\nBlack lives, white lives, brown lives, yellow lives matter<\/em><\/p>\n

choose your color:
\nall lives matter, whether on the streets of Paris
\nor in the alleys of Chicago<\/p>\n

Furthermore, this 1st apocalypse was wed to an apocalyptic mission<\/p>\n

For the followers of Jesus to continue to pull the veil<\/p>\n

Raise the curtain – Change the scene<\/p>\n

And shine the spotlight<\/p>\n

On every inhumanity to humanity
\nEvery act that diminishes human dignity
\nNot only attacks with Kalashnikov and AK 47\u2019s butt<\/p>\n

But on every slur – no matter how prominent the speaker<\/p>\n

that characterizes Muslims or immigrants
\nMexicans or Iowans
\nPediatric neurosurgeons
\nor Asians who speak English as a second language<\/p>\n

As stupid, stupid, stupid<\/p>\n

To me that is the language of an apocalyptic false prophet<\/p>\n

Who wants the world to collapse so he can fill the void<\/p>\n

And does not take the first apocalypse of incarnation seriously<\/p>\n

To say that we live in tough times is an understatement<\/p>\n

St. Michael the archangel, defend us in battle<\/p>\n

Defend us in battle … Defend us in battle<\/p>\n

Mark our gospel writer also lived in tough times<\/p>\n

Which is why he portrays Jesus as such an apocalyptic prophet<\/p>\n

Mark wrote in the midst of the 1st Jewish rebellion against Rome
\nThat culminated in the destruction of Jerusalem
\nAnd the Jewish temple
\nDecidedly apocalyptic for Mark the Jew and his Jewish readers<\/p>\n

But this larger apocalypse for Mark
\nDoes not erase the first one … the incarnation … the mission
\nWith its glimpses of hope in the final coming of the son of Man.<\/p>\n

They say it\u2019s a true story, those are always the best<\/p>\n

A man and his young teenage boy checked in to a hotel and were shown to their room. The two receptionists noted the quiet manner of the guests, and the pale appearance of the boy. Later the man and boy ate dinner in the hotel restaurant. The staff again noticed that the two guests were very quiet, and that the boy seemed disinterested in his food. After eating, the boy went to his room and the man went to reception and asked to see the manager. The receptionist initially asked if there was a problem with the service or the room, and offered to fix things, but the man said that there was no problem of that sort, and repeated his request. The manager was called and duly appeared.<\/p>\n

The man explained that he was spending the night in the hotel with his fourteen-year-old son, who was seriously ill. The boy was very soon to undergo chemotherapy, which would cause him to lose his hair. They had come to the hotel to have a break together, and also because the boy planned to shave his head, that night, rather than feel that the illness was beating him. The father said that he would be shaving his own head too, in support of his son. He asked that staff be respectful when the two of them came to breakfast with their shaved heads. The manager assured the father that he would inform all staff and that they would behave appropriately.<\/p>\n

The following morning the father and son entered the restaurant for breakfast.\u00a0 There they saw the four male restaurant staff attending to their duties, perfectly normally, all with shaved heads.<\/p>\n

In her fertile imagine, Emily Dickinson envisioned hope as<\/p>\n

The thing with feathers
\nThat perches in the soul
\nAnd sings the tune without the words
\nAnd never stops at all.<\/p>\n

For Christians that thing with feathers is God\u2019s sanctified Spirit<\/p>\n

But not a spirit that flutters overhead
\nBut wells up within us, out of the ashes
\nOf every micro and macro apocalypse that touches our lives<\/p>\n

A spirit that unites rather than divides
\nHeals rather than berates
\nHonors rather than excises
\nAnd loves in the face of every difference
\nUrging us never to fear to hope, fear to hope, fear to hope<\/p>\n

Through Christ our Lord.<\/p>\n

(Rory Cooney\u2019s \u201cDo not fear to home\u201d then performed by choir.)<\/em><\/p>\n
