- Under Construction - Laurel Dykstra While it might not look like much is happening on the surface, Wild Lectionary is hard at work behind the scenes. Several Wild Lectionary contributors are part of a Task Group of the Anglican Church of Canada helping to prepare liturgical material for the Feast of the Creator. In 2025 the Anglican church of Canada adopted the Feast of the Creator as a Major Feast within the liturgical calendar to be celebrated on September 1, transferrable to a Sunday within the Season of Creation. This is a celebration that the Orthodox Church has observed for over a millennium, marking God’s original acts of creation and by 1989 expanding the focus to include prayers for creation. Invited by the Ecumenical Patriarch, representatives of major world Communions have been engaging the question of adopting this Feast. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2026-3-generalupdate monthly 0.5 2026-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1773258996029-WLE8GH3AN8PXHF3XAZ8M/nennieinszweidrei-fern-6137756_1920.jpg Wild Lectionary - Wild Lectionary This Year You may have already noticed that we haven’t had Wild Lectionary content so far this year — we’re sad about it too!

The feast of Epiphany is about recognizing God’s manifestation; it’s that “ah ha!” moment. Traditionally, the birth of Jesus has been understood in an intensely human-centered way. As the Nicene Creed states, “For us men and for our salvation, he came down from heaven.” But as the bad wise-men joke reminds us… Wait! maybe there is myrrh But what if Jesus’ birth was not meant only for humans? What if other creatures, other members of the created world, are also drawn into this great event? And what if being human is always already a state of being woven into the whole community of creation — a community yearning not only for salvation, but for justice and flourishing for every creature? https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-12-genocide-refugees-and-creations-praise-1st-sunday-of-christmas-year-a monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1766519065695-UPMVGIU2BCG5KX7S36TH/2025.12.28-Wild+Lectionary+image.jpg Wild Lectionary - Genocide, Refugees, and Creation’s Praise: 1st Sunday of Christmas Year A - Rev. Emily E Ewing While it is irresponsible to skip this week’s Gospel, holding it in conversation with the other readings for the day proves tricky. Isaiah and Psalm 148 are filled with praise for God, Hebrews casts Jesus as the high priest and sacrifice in his perfection, and the Gospel casts Jesus as a first century Moses, complete with genocidal acts by a powerhungry ruler. And that’s just the biblical take! Creation’s praise of God calls us out of our human-centric approach to life, even as Isaiah and Matthew call us toward the most vulnerable and the communities and peoples God loves. Today, world leaders talk about “peace”, but bullets and bombs still fly and people still starve. Where is the Good News? Maybe that’s not the task for today. Maybe it is enough that God is still with us and we do not face the horrors alone. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-12-dreams-pregnant-with-possibilities-advent-4-year-a monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/c111eb76-0d1c-41f6-a521-e451ce1b610d/eee-art-advent4.png Wild Lectionary - Dreams Pregnant with Possibilities: Advent 4 Year A - Rev. Emily E. Ewing While this week’s readings are pregnant with pregnancy, bodily autonomy, believing what people say about themselves, reproductive and climate justice are apt focuses all year round. While delicacy and context play a big role, especially when preaching and readings touch on pregnancy, they can be extremely life-giving when preached well. Advent, especially this final Sunday of Advent, is also a time for dreams, and not just Joseph’s. Dreams for the world and for ourselves are ready to take root as we anticipate love incarnate in our world. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-12-crocus-and-reed-advent-3-year-a monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1765172133836-E9G4SS3VXC7R04AI5MM7/592087189_784416477940002_7602649485482035760_n.jpg Wild Lectionary - Crocus and Reed: Advent 3 Year A - Laurel Dykstra The lections for Advent 3 are indeed “blossoming abundantly” with what Dong Hyeon Jeong calls vegetal wisdom and Robin Wall Kimmerer calls the intelligence of plants: the blooming crocus, desert plants lush after inundation, sown crops waiting in the soil, a reed in the wind. All of these plants contribute to a composite vision of the goodness, thriving, and justice that God desires for all creation—plants, animals, the hungry, the disabled, the impoverished, the imprisoned. Goodness that stands in sharp contrast with the harms of empire, extraction and accumulation. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-11-our-holynbspmountain-advent-2a monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1764194024213-PO3NWBAYKXZRICAHE1PW/2016_8+17+1.png Wild Lectionary - Our Holy Mountain: Advent 2A - Zoë Tobin Peterson They will not hurt or destroy on all my holy mountain; for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.

It is during Advent where we slow down and reflect on the past year. It is also a time of waiting, waiting for the coming of Jesus. In the Gospel of Matthew, the writer points to the coming of the Son of Humanity and compares it to the flooding of the earth during the time of Noah (Matthew 36:37). The Great Flood and Advent are both “a coming.” (Julia Gatta. Life in Christ: Practising Christian Spirituality. Pg 109) The word advent is derived from the Latin word adventus, meaning “coming,” which is a translation of the Greek word parousia. (University of Portland. Did you know: Meaning of Advent.) https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-11-23rd-sunday-after-pentecost-year-c-praise-and-destruction-for-all-creation monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/430318e2-081b-4a63-9307-0a0efb066e7e/unnamed+%285%29.jpg Wild Lectionary - 23rd Sunday after Pentecost Year C: Praise and Destruction for All Creation - Rev. Emily E. Ewing From all creation praising God for God’s victory and compassion to destruction at the hands of humanity and food insecurity throughout the world, this week’s texts dig into “end times” and potential catastrophes. While these last weeks of the church year usually contain more of what is deemed “apocalyptic” literature, the struggles described, as with most of scripture, were intended to address crises and situations in first century Palestine. There is still, however, much for us to engage with today. No matter where your preaching leads, addressing the pop culture understandings of the end times is an essential part of supporting congregational biblical literacy, even if it is a simple disclaimer at the beginning of the sermon. Digging into food insecurity around the world and “natural” disasters that are increasingly the result of human action helps connect creation care and creation justice with larger movements for justice and care of humans as well. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-9-beholders-of-faith-from-alien-tongues-to-sacred-language monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1759162316486-X7CABE3Q2FI6Y55GD08F/boulder-4612961_1280.jpg Wild Lectionary - Beholders of Faith: From Alien Tongues to Sacred Language - 17th Sunday After Pentecost - Andrea Tsugawa One of my all-time favorite films is Arrival. It’s a maybe-not-so-science-fiction story that begins when twelve mysterious, stone-like alien ships descend upon Earth. Without giving too much away, the protagonist—a linguist—is tasked with decoding their language and uncovering their purpose. But the film is far more than a tale of extraterrestrial contact. It’s a profound journey into the Great Mystery, where one person’s understanding of time, space, and trust is completely transformed. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-9-a-system-wrapped-in-purple-robes monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1758480210122-M294XXEF0I32YEAH24Q1/pexels-steve-3684544.jpg Wild Lectionary - A System Wrapped in Purple Robes: Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost - By Lenny Duncan Gospel Text: Luke 16:19-31 I am always incredibly grateful for the Gospel of Luke.

Ken Gray has put together this resource and says, in part: This collection is organized roughly by geographical region. It must be stressed that the very term “Indigenous” stresses local connection with the land from which evolves culture, history, and practice. Translation from one context to another is therefore problematic, though still possible. We can and shall learn from one another, but only if we guard against egregious cultural appropriation. So feel free to use these texts citing their sources. As you are able research the context from which the texts emerge. As we discover each other’s life and historical setting, let us marvel together at the rich and diverse tapestry of the global Christian church.

None of the passages this week are especially “creation-forward” and references to the more than human world are quite troubling. In Hosea, divine-human relations are compared to the relationship between predator and prey, as well as to intimacy and violence in human families. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-7-from-brokenness-to-wholeness monthly 0.5 2025-07-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1753210117102-3HXUEXD96W8FFJVU5UF8/Psalm85.png Wild Lectionary - From Brokenness to Wholeness: The Prophetic Journey from Hosea to Jesus’ Prayer - 7th Sunday After Pentecost - Maylanne Maybee As I write this, in the summer of 2025, I observe a season when the hungry people of Gaza ask for food and instead receive not eggs, not even scorpions, but live bullets; when the breadbasket of Ukraine is laid waste by the deadly drones and bombs of a land-grabbing tyrant; and when wildfires and flashfloods on our own continent threaten property and communities, taking human and other than human lives. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-7-overflowing-hospitality monthly 0.5 2025-07-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1752352346313-2JS3UMC3XQNT9U42A3OV/july-tree.png Wild Lectionary - Overflowing Hospitality: 6th Sunday After Pentecost Year C - A terebinth tree https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1752352343596-BPYN1EYK67D9SYA0WDGY/july-holden.png Wild Lectionary - Overflowing Hospitality: 6th Sunday After Pentecost Year C - Holden Tree of Life, by Kristen Gilje https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1752352342653-KJO9MBBDE6SPFUXMLTN8/july-bertie.png Wild Lectionary - Overflowing Hospitality: 6th Sunday After Pentecost Year C - 101 year old Bertie and 13 year old Edie sharing hospitality https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-7-5th-sunday-after-pentecost-year-c-an-ecological-reading-of-the-good-samaritan monthly 0.5 2025-07-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/d63b2dca-e736-4a33-88ce-ba4a17118b7c/Tar_Sands_Landscape_%28940%29.jpg Wild Lectionary - 5th Sunday After Pentecost Year C: An Ecological Reading of the Good Samaritan - Laurel Dykstra A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him, beat him, and went away, leaving him half dead. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-6-guided-by-the-spirit-4th-sunday-after-pentecost monthly 0.5 2025-06-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1750702286972-PPA2LG9SZD7KN3KZGUYJ/tree-wl-guided.png Wild Lectionary - Guided by the Spirit: 4th Sunday after Pentecost Yr C - Christy Thomson I recently returned from a month-long work trip to Europe where I spent some time in Slovenia facilitating a training. My work as a trainer and mentor for ANFT (Association of Nature and Forest Therapy guides and programs) is rewarding, challenging and gives me ample opportunity to face the questions this week’s reading brings to mind; am I living in the Spirit? Do I allow the Spirit to be my guide? What does it look like/feel like to live in the Spirit? If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.

The spring, uncovered and piped into a little fountain by the villagers, looked cool and inviting. I took off my sandals and washed my feet in the water, immediately recalling the story of how Jesus washed the feet of his disciples with water made sacred by his intention and love. I asked myself; how is this water different-blessed by the earth, filtered and cleansed by layer after layer of limestone bedrock? The earth’s intention in her providing this water was clear; well-being, rejuvenation, and cleanliness. What was my intention with this washing? I believe it was in the receiving. Sometimes it is so difficult to allow ourselves to simply receive. What my body and soul wanted to feel in that moment was to feel noticed and nurtured. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-6-a-small-break-for-the-third-sunday-after-pentecost monthly 0.5 2025-06-23 https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-6-first-peoples-day-reflections-year-c monthly 0.5 2025-06-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1750707152584-TBPWHKKVLDEI5XILCRRQ/metis-elder.png Wild Lectionary - First Peoples Day Reflections - Rene Inkster On June 21 Canadians celebrate National Indigenous Peoples Day and many churches observe a day of prayer.

Caleb Crainer For people concerned about the environment, imagining the world beyond a human-centered perspective becomes an important aspect of our spirituality. We are grounded in our interconnectivity with all of creation. But many people have difficulty making the shift away from their own concerns. The frameworks of interconnection are few and far between, instead we default to narratives that reinforce the idea that the creation of the world is ultimately about humans and human prosperity. When we put humans at the center of everything (anthropocentrism) then every other aspect of reality is only important as they can contribute to the well being of humans. The result: greed, unrestrained capitalism, and the accumulation of authoritarian power. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/19d8c212-72be-4726-be8c-1c97a5f87146/caleb.png Wild Lectionary - Wild Love of a Wild God: Holy Trinity Sunday Year C - Rev.

The City had replaced a sewer line adjacent to our house a few years earlier, and it had severed a major root of the tree. We knew it was only a matter of time for that old spruce. It finally gave up and down it came to protect our house from the risk of it falling on the roof. Suddenly, we had a blank space. What to do with a part of the land we occupy now that the tree and related greenery was gone? A vision came to us: suddenly, we had a space on which the sun shined much of the day.

Emily E Ewing While this week’s Ascension readings are not as tied to the earth as usual, they certainly lift the discourse on cosmologies and how they impact our own perspectives and biases. From cosmological models to maps with the south on top, our perspectives are influenced every day and Ascension provides space to wonder creatively about who is really on top. The readings also play a lot with kingly imagery and understandings of power that provide a bold witness against many of the abuses of power we experience today. And, as is always present when reading texts set in a land beset by violence and genocide, this Sunday, especially, our contexts call for care and attention to the pain and violence continuing in Palestine. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-5-the-river-of-water-of-life-easter-6c monthly 0.5 2025-05-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1747675170389-MISZFAUR86SXEEJZGVK3/lynnvalley-river.jpg Wild Lectionary - The River of Water of Life: Easter 6C - Jason Rajan It is without a doubt that water is taken for granted. Yet, in the readings below we can see it holds a core message and presence. Just look at the Anglican Dominical Scarcements of Baptism and Eucharist. The quote “Water is the soul of the earth” is usually credited to British Poet W.H. Auden and it clearly indicates the value of water. I would expand on it with the idea of water being the soul of our faith. Water is in our bodies and in every part of our lives. Throughout this week’s readings there are common themes that appear. Among them are river, water, gate, light, and life are prominent. These themes reveal a movement of water and the significance of connection, complexity, beauty and belonging. So how does it connect to our readings for this Sunday? John Thorson, judge, scholar and cofounder of Dividing Waters wrote: “Water links us to our neighbour in a way more profound and complex than any other.” Our neighbour of course is every living entity around us, the earth and we are called to be faithful. What can that faithfulness look like in our day to day lives? Let’s break down that down in the following passages. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-5-trees-a-gift-for-all-or-entitlement-for-some-easter-5c monthly 0.5 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1747065757566-WXNZKXHNY6IBXTMZLAAH/Opera+Snapshot_2025-05-11_214732_www.google.com.png Wild Lectionary - Trees, a Gift for All or Entitlement for Some?: Easter 5C - Rev. Dr. Victoria Marie Revelation 21:1-6 John 13:31-35 And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “See, the home of God is among mortals.” I imagine that a new Jerusalem, where God will dwell, will most definitely have tree-lined streets. I also imagine that God’s design for the present Jerusalem—for Earth’s cities in general—is that all should benefit from the Divine gift of trees. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-5-sheep-gazelle-andnbsprock-easter monthly 0.5 2025-05-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1746463750549-425KROXZ9W6ONJP1ZJDK/gazelle-2242886_1280.jpg Wild Lectionary - Sheep, Gazelle and Rock: Easter 4C - Laurel Dykstra Acts 9:36-43 Psalm 23 On this Good Shepherd Sunday, our annual engagement with the repeated biblical assertion that both kingship and divine-human relations resemble sheep husbandry, the lectionary illuminates two key aspects of the emerging Wild Church Movement. Connected to both Watershed Discipleship and Contemplative Ecology, Wild Church is nothing more than Christians who intentionally worship, or seek to experience holiness, outside of buildings. In forests, deserts, city parks, beaches, urban vacant lots we reassert the strand of our tradition where wilderness is the place of divine encounter. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-4-singing-with-every-creature-in-heaven-and-on-earth-easter-3c monthly 0.5 2025-04-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1745795758493-PHI5GQYDN0OFJODNEXOT/pexels-cottonbro-3662629.jpg Wild Lectionary - Singing with Every Creature in Heaven and on Earth!: Easter 3C - Sébastien Doane, Université Laval Rediscovering the Creaturely in Scripture The Bible is teeming with life — not just human life, but the lives of animals, plants, earth, and sky. While theology has often placed human beings at the center of the story, a closer reading reveals a vibrant, creaturely world deeply involved in the drama of salvation. From the blood-soaked ground that cries out to God in Genesis, to the lamb on the throne in Revelation, Scripture invites us to see beyond ourselves and into the interconnected web of creation. These reflections explore key biblical passages through an ecological and more-than-human lens — considering what happens when we take seriously the presence and participation of animals in the sacred story. What might it mean to follow a lamb, to worship with all creatures, or to encounter God in the gaze of another species? These commentaries open space for rethinking discipleship, worship, and ethics through the lens of creaturely kinship — challenging us to live more humbly, attentively, and lovingly within the community of all God's beings. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-4-easter-2-year-c-antisemitism-disability-and-our-witness-to-the-world monthly 0.5 2025-04-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/7b658a25-d97c-4c26-adfe-a22b8352d7e0/tumblr_76f62b68dd18431c8d9766bd324f0299_2506a83e_1280.jpg Wild Lectionary - Easter 2 Year C: Antisemitism, Disability, and Our Witness to the World - Rev. Emily E. Ewing This week’s readings are filled with imagery from creation, from the firmaments that praise God to the tree on which Jesus was hung to everything with breath or eyes. Alongside this imagery, humanity is called into connection and relationship with the rest of creation and with each other. This embodied relationship, bearing wounds, scars, disabilities, and diversity, deepens relationship so that the Disabled Christ who meets Thomas in the flesh might inspire the great proclamation of faith “My Lord and my God!” in response. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1745370055562-P7JQPNGNDTT3EVANHP5S/2025.04.27-Wild+Lectionary+image.jpg Wild Lectionary - Easter 2 Year C: Antisemitism, Disability, and Our Witness to the World https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-4-jesus-seedsnbspsprout-easter-sunday monthly 0.5 2025-04-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/d0205e3d-58c7-4028-9ec4-265f93bb4e70/harts-tongue-fern-7151321_1280.jpg Wild Lectionary - Jesus seeds, sprout! Easter Sunday - Wes Howard-Brook and Sue Ferguson Johnson Night and day, woman and man, soil and sky, humanity and God: all these primal pairs are present in this week’s proclamation of the Uprising of Jesus. Each pair echoes an element of the first chapters of Genesis, the foundational narrative of the “religion of creation” upon which John’s gospel is grounded. These connections help us to hear that the hope of Easter is not in an invisible part of one’s self (“the soul”) leaving earth for somewhere else, but in the power of the Creator God to continue to bring forth life from the earth, despite the murderous ways of empire. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-04-resisting-christian-anti-judaism-repost monthly 0.5 2025-04-08 https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-4-a-chorus-of-beings-liturgy-of-the-branches monthly 0.5 2025-04-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1743990228892-MY89YWJ3C7HL79T2IPXT/462211844_2341004016246182_1653633063233318864_n.jpg Wild Lectionary - A Chorus of Beings: Liturgy of the Branches (Palm Sunday) Year C - Laurel Dykstra This week’s offering for eco-preachers focuses on the so-called Palm Sunday lections and draws from the work of a number of Wild Lectionary contributors and supporters. The practice of reading the Passion on the Sunday before Easter can overshadow the powerful portrait of an animate creation’s joyful disruption of extractive empire.

In John’s version of the anointing of Jesus, the themes of abundance and impoverishment are part of a stark portrait of conflicts within the core of the resistance movement that follows the Way and seeks God’s Kingdom. The lectionary places these images and ideas adjacent to one another, offering preachers and teachers rich and relevant material with which to engage our current moment as we face rising fascism, accelerating climate crisis, and a connection between exploitation of humans and the more-than-human world that is older than our scriptures. The material below offers homiletic prompts rooted in queer- and body-positivity but also in the practicalities of resistance movements. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/8d7698ce-4880-4449-8f75-eb0730ca00f8/Screen+Shot+2025-03-29+at+2.59.09+PM.png Wild Lectionary - Lent 5, Year A: Abomination and Abundance - Reference to this chart made in the expanded John commentary above.

For a number of years now, congregations (especially among those of this wild circle) have been experimenting with local leafiness rather than paying to import a non-native species. St. Phillips in Coastal Salish lands, lifts sword ferns; Circle of Hope in Philly uses local juniper; New Life Lutheran Church grabs Poverty Weed, which is native to Dripping Springs, TX. Such like. Think box elder, pine, Queen Anne’s Lace. For the Kirkridge Community in Pennsylvania, pussy willows from by the tarn. For a Detroit procession: one from the ailanthus, the Tree of Heaven, also it goes by other names, Ghetto Palm (no less), Weed Tree, and others unprintable.

It’s not just that the word transfiguration simply means “a change of form”—which is something I know quite a bit about—nor is it simply that my experience and Jesus’ experience are consistent with the natural world. Creation, after all, is full of transfigurations: tadpoles become frogs, seeds become plants, some fish species change sex, caterpillars become butterflies (this last itself being a popular metaphor for gender transitions). We now even know that genetic information—supposedly immutable—can change over the course of our lives. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-2-famine-and-the-preservation-of-life-7th-after-epiphany-year-c monthly 0.5 2025-02-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1739747815544-UNE1BRDC8HBANMKLTF8T/Unmatinapresledeluge.jpg Wild Lectionary - Famine and the Preservation of Life: 7th Sunday after Epiphany, Year C - by Mother Amanda Ruston, OSBCn WhIt is not always so simple to identify the presence of God in the midst of difficult circumstances, or to see signs of redemption and hope in the darker seasons or ‘famines’ of life. Certainly, these are often the reasons humans have used to ‘prove’ that God does not care, or that God simply does not exist. However, even in the darkest of circumstances, God’s presence may be found wherever there are signs of life. God’s nature is life-giving, life-preserving. God’s intervention in seemingly hopeless circumstances - even those brought about by sinful human actions, will always produce signs of life; of reconciliation; of peace. The tricky part for any preacher or teacher is to position themselves correctly and direct their message accordingly. Those who have privilege must be careful to avoid romanticizing those who do not, or suggesting that they should merely wait patiently for the Lord to eventually provide for them, thereby absolving themselves of any responsibility in the process. Instead, those who have privilege and resources should glean from these passages a challenge to join in with God’s abundant, life-giving work, striving to share their blessings with others - not for the hope of accolades or promise of reward, but because equity and justice are in alignment with the nature of God and the pattern of Creation. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-2-becoming-radically-entangled-with-the-flow-of-creation-sixth-sunday-after-epiphany-year-c monthly 0.5 2025-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1739148761823-0BO07RG0ICF4PKLAEK47/Murphy+spot+2.jpg Wild Lectionary - Becoming radically entangled with the flow of Creation: Sixth Sunday after Epiphany, year ‘C’ - Wes Howard-Brook and Sue Ferguson Johnson Our texts From Jeremiah and the Psalms this week invite humans to compare their relationship with God to a streamside tree. This ancient image may well sound “new” to readers expecting a comparison to God or to a “holy person” of note. But our Israelite ancestors were not bound by the Platonic assumptions that tend to shape Western thought and action, dichotomizing what the Bible joins: heaven (sky+) and earth. There is a paradox in this picture: the stability of the tree is determined by underground hydraulics in constant motion. It is a steady, assured motion, providing needed nourishment to all who dare “send out their roots (hence, “radical”) by the stream” (Jer 17.8). It might seem at first that this theme is far from the message of Paul in 1 Corinthians 15 or Jesus in Luke 6. But to those with eyes to see and ears to hear, we can discern both voices singing in harmony with the prophet and poet of yore. Just a few verses down from the lectionary passage, Paul turns to an analogy to “explain” resurrection: it is like a seed planted in the soil (15.37-38)! We can be sure Paul already had that image in mind when he penned the portion we focus on this week: the reality of life beyond this one, named as “first fruits.” The transformation from seed to fruit cannot take place with that watery connection! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/ddeef7b2-488d-4b0e-ab80-7e5892f652c3/Murphy+spot+1.jpg Wild Lectionary - Becoming radically entangled with the flow of Creation: Sixth Sunday after Epiphany, year ‘C’ - Contributor Bios Wes Howard-Brook and Sue Ferguson Johnson share the ministry, Abide in Me (John 15), seeking to interweave the mystical and prophetic, the personal and the political, the human and the nonhuman in the name of Jesus https://www.abideinme.net/ .

It was pouring rain. Seth George was our guide. He told us it was the wettest day of the year! We nevertheless went out in the 35-foot traditional style ocean-going canoe. We listened as Seth shared legends, songs, and stories of his family. Afterwards, Jenn Ashton, the Indigenous Cultural Sensitivity Leader at my church emailed and asked how it went. I told her that while I enjoyed the tour very much, I was disappointed with the weather—that it hadn’t been the picture-perfect day I had hoped for. I could almost hear her smiling. She reminded me that stormy seas are what early Indigenous people would have braved—with or without waterproof rain gear! She was right. I had to revisit my romanticised view of the land. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-1-a-small-break-for-the-third-sunday-after-epiphany monthly 0.5 2025-01-20 https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2025-1-first-sunday-after-epiphany-year-c-married-to-thenbspland monthly 0.5 2025-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/e35bcdc9-4480-496f-b031-43141b7d35c7/vikki-blog-wl-bicubic.jpg Wild Lectionary - First Sunday After Epiphany Year C: Married to the Land - Rev.

Love is the initiating and continuing force in creation. In contrast, the much-vaunted economy is based on fear and greed. God’s creation is based on Love.

Jonathan Crane The Epiphany is chock full of ecological, cosmic, spiritual, and physical significance. The star is the central image, but there are also some delightful myths that land in this season of revelation, darkness, journey, and light. Southern Italy holds a tradition that, on the Epiphany, the animals can speak and share news of their treatment through the year. It is a small testament to a deeper sense that the news of Jesus impacts all shapes and dimensions of our world. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-12-first-sunday-after-christmas-year-c-clothed-in-wisdom-and-compassion monthly 0.5 2024-12-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1734992079086-33Q9DI29XZEPRG7NKXWT/lynx-4660096_1280+%281%29.jpg Wild Lectionary - First Sunday after Christmas, Year C: Clothed in Wisdom and Compassion - Shawn Sanford Beck In this first Sunday after Christmas, chances are that the people in your pews (or grove) will be small in number. The excitement of the preceding season, with its innumerable parties, carols, cookies, lights, overindulgence … and then finally its profound and cosmic joy of the great feast of nativity and incarnation … all of that leaves us breathless.

I am practicing looking for wonders. Yes, sometimes my day is interrupted by a stereotypical spectacular sunrise. Yes, I am amazed by the beautiful music of the Magnificat. But I am transformed when I interrupt my day and stop to watch a worm wriggle, to listen for the song sparrow, or let the rain fall on my face to notice how it feels as the water strikes my skin. In the littlest details I feel connected to the whole of creation. And in that moment of connection with God’s creation, I wonder, how can we hear God's call to moral, political and social change from a young girl with no moral, political or social authority? Trusting that God is still calling to us in our generations, can we look and listen for God's presence with the humble and lowly? What would the worm teach about morals? What would the sparrow sing about political aims? How might I be in right social relations with the water of the rain? https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-12-advent-3-year-c-vipers-and-water-and-fire-oh-my monthly 0.5 2024-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1733765577360-J5GVV733XRXKZ5LGZMJM/280548328_10158733323596146_1091110858108228835_n%281%29.jpg Wild Lectionary - Advent 3, Year C: Vipers, and Water and Fire, Oh My - Laurel Dykstra While most preachers and teachers are unlikely to go hard on climate justice on Advent 3, and John’s identity as wilderness prophet somewhat muted in this week’s gospel, the readings this week nevertheless convey: the sanctity and precariousness of water, interconnections between social, economic, and ecological justice as well as the way that relationships with the more than human world, particularly cultivated plants -fruits and grains- pervade the gospeller’s moral imagination. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-11-advent-2-year-c-into-the-wilderness monthly 0.5 2024-11-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1732994083559-BLLHMXLCU39C70OCD49E/juli-kosolapova-pZ-XFIrJMtE-unsplash.jpg Wild Lectionary - Advent 2, Year C: Into the Wilderness - LeAnn Blackert Gather up the locusts. Break out the honey. This week’s lectionary readings are a feast from the wilderness. Malachi sets the table for our feast. This community memory from a post-exilic time in the life of the Israelites foreshadows John’s role as prophet and messenger. For our appetizer the Psalm reading is the song of praise offered by Zechariah, father of our host, who reminds us that the promises and mercy of God are being fulfilled through the coming one. John serves up the main course, inviting us out of our comfortable homes and churches and into the wilderness, not only to celebrate, but also to prepare, to prepare the way for long awaited Holy One. And Paul brings out the dessert, served with a sprinkle of joy and a dash of love. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-11-advent-1-year-c-humility-to-listen monthly 0.5 2024-11-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1732564120554-ETA7RTJD5VY1KYGUDUGW/48647270271_93e1ec1459_c.jpg Wild Lectionary - Advent 1, Year C: Humility to Listen - Dong Hyeon Jeong In this season of Advent, we are once again surrounded by the noise of consumerism. Once again, we purchase things we do not need, create massive pile of garbage we should not have created, all for the sake of keeping up with the so-called spirit of the season. What if, for this Advent season, we keep up a different kind of spirit, one that is ecologically attuned to the needs of our time? What if we listen instead to the humming and cracklings of the leaves and the trees, to the chirping and flutters of the birds, and to the barking of our canine friends who invite us to welcome the divine in more-than-human ways? https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-11-reign-of-christ-year-b-cosmic-sovereignty monthly 0.5 2024-11-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1731781099884-36EH0VCS3RWNSDROIYES/squirrel-5454613_1280.jpg Wild Lectionary - Reign of Christ, Year B: Cosmic Sovereignty - Shawn Sanford Beck Who needs kings??? Really, in this day and age (and especially at this particularly critical time and place of danger on Turtle Island, under threat by a King in Orange) another power-hungry dictator twisting the world into their own cruel and greedy image is about the last thing we need. It is certainly the last thing that our more-than-human neighbours need, as the Earth groans under the satanic endgame of late industrial capitalism. And yet, and yet … as Luffy D. Monkey (perhaps under the influence of ontological anarchist philosopher hakim bey before him) reminds us … at some deep level, we all have a secret dream of sovereignty, even if this is paradoxically expressed as “King of the Pirates”. Kings, Queens, what does it all mean? And why does the monarch haunt us so? https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-11-pentecost-26-year-b-creation-and-the-end-of-time monthly 0.5 2024-11-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1731350510768-WBYNPM7VEDHKU2I9C3EK/WL-lichen.png Wild Lectionary - Pentecost 26, Year B: Creation and the End of Time - Rachel Field Note that Wild Lectionary follows the Anglican Church of Canada’s adaptation of the Revised Common Lectionary which this week differ from the Revised Common Lectionary. On this Sunday, we have an opportunity again to think about Christ’s power and role in the cosmos as it is in relationship with all of creation. The focus in the gospel from Mark is on the end of times, which is a challenging topic for ecological preachers, but one that needs to be embraced. The texts give us an opportunity to reflect on what it means to love deeply, those things that are fleeting, dying, changing, as well as to ground ourselves and creation in the work that Jesus is doing to redeem and uplift all beings. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-11-pentecost-25-year-b-from-scarcity-and-sacrifice-to-eco-spiritual-solidarity monthly 0.5 2024-11-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1730659537683-G5PD1L830RYG0LJXPY16/encampment-3.jpg Wild Lectionary - Pentecost 25, Year B: From Scarcity and Sacrifice to Eco-Spiritual Solidarity - By Maki Ashe Van Steenwyk This week's lectionary readings present a compelling intersection of ecological, economic, and religious themes that speak directly to our contemporary crises of environmental devastation and social inequality. When read through a holistic liberationist lens, these texts challenge both the anthropocentric interpretations that have dominated Christian theology and the individualistic spiritualities that often characterize contemporary religious practice. The narrative of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath, the eco-justice doxology of Psalm 146, the cosmic implications of Christ's sacrifice in Hebrews, and Jesus' critique of exploitative religious systems in Mark's Gospel collectively suggest that true devotion requires dismantling systems of exploitation rather than celebrating individual sacrifice within them. These texts reveal how religious performance can mask and legitimize systematic violence against both vulnerable populations and ecosystems. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-10-all-souls-year-b-nonhuman-saints-and-holy-ones monthly 0.5 2024-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1729969605838-K9LL664RVMSLI0IMH973/brightangel.png Wild Lectionary - All Souls, Year B: Nonhuman Saints and Holy Ones - Wes Howard-Brook and Sue Ferguson Johnson As we move toward the celebration of All Saints, we explore in this week’s readings the themes of “holy ones” present throughout creation, with a focus on the nonhuman realm, particularly mountains as found in the Isaiah reading, “new creation” as part of the ongoing evolutionary process from the Revelation reading and the unbound earthly-body resurrection we see in the Lazarus story in John’s gospel.

However, too narrow a focus on climate justice may sometimes cause us to forget that humans are part of God’s creation as well. In the readings for this Sunday, the theme of human dignity emerges: a worthy and important counterpart to the care in which we are called to offer our stewardship of the earth. Whether we participate in the blind consumption of the earth or centre ourselves as the saviours of climate change, a too-high view of our own self-importance as humans can be detrimental. Rethinking our own self-importance in favour of a more expansive connectedness with all of God’s creation may allow us to adopt a more humble position, when facing the challenges of addressing climate justice and other systemic issues. It may also keep us from inevitable burnout if we recall that it is not up to us as individuals to be the Saviour of the world - that role is already filled. We are instead called to be in community with the rest of creation, united in Christ and sharing in the innate dignity of all God’s creation - both human and non-human. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-10-kae7eo2opq6o15yipbs08doswfbs2s monthly 0.5 2024-10-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1729455163664-TMCNZJTNPT83ZCCPHENK/52395581961_75df3bcbdd_c%281%29.jpg Wild Lectionary - Preaching Land Back on Harvest Thanksgiving and Columbus Day - Laurel Dykstra Notes from a sermon preached Sunday October 13, 2024, at St. James Anglican Church, on unceded lands of Hul’q’umi’num’ and Sḵwx̱wú7mesh speaking peoples, specifically Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh, Vancouver BC, Canada.

Who is it that has authority? From whence does that authority derive? Job longs to know why he is so afflicted, but God does not answer why these things happened. God answers by displaying his authority. This authority is not heavy-handed or tyrannical, nor is it derived from power and might. God’s authority is wrapped up in God’s as creator and labourer who is in continued relationship with all God’s creation. Both the author of Job and the Psalmist derive God’s authority from God’s creativity, the fact that God is the source of all creation. They also speak to God’s persistent presence in and among that creation. God sees and knows the smallest, most remote corners of the world.

Joel’s proclamation of joy first for the earth and then for the children of Zion reminds us of the centrality of the more than human parts of creation while also affirming, along with Psalm 126 and Matthew 6, God’s presence in providing and caring for humanity. 1 Timothy’s call to pray for rulers connects the importance of peace with God’s relationship to humanity. As many celebrate and give thanks for the harvest in worship this week and many throughout the world continue to suffer from the devastation of increasingly extreme weather, centering on God’s relationship with the land opens possibilities for accountability, repentance, and calls to action. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-9-sunday-october-6-2024-a-new-creation-is-everything monthly 0.5 2024-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1727666663936-7TKDEU597BD1TQT3S6KC/rainbow.png Wild Lectionary - Sunday, October 6, 2024 – A New Creation is Everything! - Maylanne Maybee How do you intend to observe this Sunday, and what readings will you choose to preach from? According to the Revised Common Lectionary of The Episcopal Church and the Anglican Church of Canada, October 6, 2024 is the 20th Sunday after Pentecost. However, this year, many parishes that have been observing the Season of Creation may opt to transfer the celebration of St. Francis Day from Friday, October 4, to Sunday, October 6, as a way of marking the end of the Creation Season. (Another option, not addressed here, would be to hold a service for the Blessing of Animals found in The Book of Occasional Services of The Episcopal Church and available on line.) https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-9-19th-sunday-after-pentecost-year-b-both-prayer-and-action monthly 0.5 2024-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1727061316657-ULRYELPIWARU7I4SX063/birds.png Wild Lectionary - 19th Sunday after Pentecost Year B: Both Prayer and Action - Justin Cheng The readings for Propers 21 (the 19th Sunday after Pentecost) convey a sense of emergency. Given the grim news of the climate emergency, each month from June 2023 to July 2024 was the hottest on record (CBC July 8, 2024), and its catastrophic effects from extreme weather, warming oceans and loss of habitat, resulting in misery and suffering to all life, both human and nonhuman, the readings stir preachers and congregations to act and pray. My spiritual perspective is that both action and prayer are needed and complement each other. The readings today might offer opportunity to explore that relationship in the context of climate justice. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-9-18th-sunday-after-pentecost-year-b-texts-for-when-the-choices-facing-us-are-increasingly-stark monthly 0.5 2024-09-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1726345558938-X2M77UYNONC66SXJ1ASF/WL-chedmyers.png Wild Lectionary - 18th Sunday after Pentecost, Year B: Texts for When the Choices Facing Us are Increasingly Stark - Ched Myers At first glance, this Sunday’s texts seem to offer relatively little illumination of the themes centered in this Wild Lectionary, much less during the Season of Creation. In particular, Proverbs 31’s portrait of womanhood appears to articulate quite the opposite of ecofeminism, and is widely so interpreted. Still, an earth-centered hermeneutic (interpretive strategy) can unlock deep wisdom carried by these old scriptures. All four resonate in their parenetic orientation (the rhetoric of moral and ethical instruction). While ancient “two ways” style paraenesis may seem too dualistic for our modern sensibilities around complexity and ambiguity, they do speak to stark historical ultimatums we face under multiple interlocking social and ecological crises. When applied to our own selves and society (as opposed to the Other), they can help animate the radical personal and political choices facing communities of faith. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/bb10499e-5286-471d-b613-c733eb76c4be/chart-chedmyers.png Wild Lectionary - 18th Sunday after Pentecost, Year B: Texts for When the Choices Facing Us are Increasingly Stark - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-9-16th-sunday-after-pentecost-year-b-resisting-the-lies-of-human-supremecy monthly 0.5 2024-09-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1725576136730-K2AQBR41NN3SDT8CB5A0/image0.jpeg Wild Lectionary - 17th Sunday After Pentecost, Year B: Wisdom Cries Out in Many Voices - Kateri Boucher This week, we are called to listen to the Wisdom crying out to us with counsel and warning… to resist the lies of human supremacy that have been handed down to us through the Biblical tradition… And to remember that surrendering our egos will ultimately allow us to join the great abundant ecosystem and Kingdom of God. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-9-16th-sunday-after-pentecost-year-b-what-creation-already-knows monthly 0.5 2024-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1725229464133-CT50D6W8OFN7KO1NNRQQ/456189346_10169624450110232_7981010437903087640_n.jpg Wild Lectionary - 16th Sunday After Pentecost, Year B: What Creation Already Knows - Lauren Sanders Human beings need relationships, learnings, and accountability to understand what creation already knows: all that God created is good. The goodness of creation maintains the divine spark of the Creator through relationships with all that God created and with the Creator. These relationships are originally sustainable ecosystems. We are called to be in balance and in harmony with all of creation. While balance and harmony are natural, many generations of humans have created systems of oppression that seem insurmountable and endless. The work of justice is to be accountable to all of creation and to maintain balance and harmony. The work of justice is ours to pursue since time immemorial. For systems of oppression (i.e. racism and colonization and genocide) warp and poison, ultimately hurting ourselves and destroying what God called good. The scripture passages for this Sunday are focused on justice, our work for justice, and what it means to be accountable. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-8-15th-sunday-after-pentecost-year-b-the-season-of-creation-begins monthly 0.5 2024-08-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1724528524723-OIOH45LUZEOUYJI730AA/sofiya-levchenko-ilBdgYgcamE-unsplash.jpg Wild Lectionary - 15th Sunday after Pentecost, Year B: The Season of Creation Begins - Brittyn Calyx and Vic Welle This week's Gospel and epistle are concerned with ethical action, and the Hebrew texts highlight themes of joy, celebration, and pleasure. Taken as a whole, we hear an invitation to take action joyfully, rather than being motivated by guilt, perfectionism, or performative actions that do not further the building of beloved community. As the annual Season of Creation observances begin, we are aware of the urgent and daunting work of responding to climate crisis. The texts invite us to reflect on how to best to engage gladly in ethical action to further the ecology of God. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-8-14th-sunday-after-pentecost-year-b-but-will-god-indeed-dwell-on-the-earth monthly 0.5 2024-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1724210008718-VAZ41UECFT2XZZIIFBE7/14130200440_be2aca1532_c.jpg Wild Lectionary - 14th Sunday after Pentecost, Year B: But will God indeed Dwell on the Earth? - Peter Elliott Hebrew scripture presents us with two ways the community worshipped God: tent and temple. From Moses until Solomon, the community traveled with the ark of the covenant, kept in a tent. Containing the tablets of the Ten Commandments, the ark kept the community mindful that God was with them on the journey. It reminded them too of how to live in a community formed, they believed, by the true and living God. It reminded them of boundaries of human behaviour: like keeping sabbath, respecting elders, eschewing violence, and to keep a check on our human proclivity to desire/covet more. While, on first glance, the building of a temple would seem to distance a community from their experience of the earth, Solomon’s temple was designed to celebrate the creation story found in Genesis 1—a journey into the temple was to remind worshippers of how the earth is God’s sacred creation. Psalm 84 celebrates the annual pilgrimage through earth’s terrains to be with the community at worship in the temple. The author of the letter to the Ephesians takes and subverts rhetoric from the empire’s military to remind the Christian community that their ministry takes place in the context of strong opposition. And the gospel reading concludes a 5-week journey through the bread of life discourse in John 6—by pointing to the physical world it resists being spiritualized. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/2148bff0-07ff-43fb-ac4e-0c829e71bbc5/WL-table.png Wild Lectionary - 14th Sunday after Pentecost, Year B: But will God indeed Dwell on the Earth? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-8-thirteenth-sunday-after-pentecost monthly 0.5 2024-08-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1723404699689-JKMU8RU6YGWEUWYVS60S/bread-photo.png Wild Lectionary - Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost: Living Bread - Amy McCreath Introduction: What is divine wisdom? How do we resist hearing it and acting on it? How can we let ourselves be formed into the wise ones God yearns for us to be, for the sake of all of God’s creation?

The Very Rev. Ken Gray In different ways each of today’s lections share a common theme. God’s gift to and through all creation is simply love. Love is quickly followed by truth and gratitude.

The Bible seems to be subscribing to such a worldview. And yet, in life and in the Bible, we see glimpses of the nonhumans (animals, plants, and inanimate entities) showing humans the ways of the divine. They teach us; they even heal us. Humanity’s presentation and view of the nonhumans might not always be positive and reconciling. Nevertheless, ecologically engaging the nonhumans in the Bible guide us to the divine and do otherwise. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-7-10thsundayafterpentecost-yrb monthly 0.5 2024-07-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1721563575799-8MXJH9LIEQV3I7ZWIZSP/2017-sarah-fuller.jpg Wild Lectionary - Tenth Sunday After Pentecost Year B: Abusive Power and Abundant Provision - Rev. Emily E. Ewing From military overwhelm and abusive power to the strength and abundance of God, this week’s readings have a lot to say about the world in which we live. King David’s abuse of power, both at waging a war he is not willing to risk his own life for and at raping Bathsheeba and having her husband assassinated, provide plenty of examples of Psalm 14’s proclamation that humanity has failed to live up to our best selves. While Ephesians’ emphasis is more focused on praising God, its imagery of rootedness and groundedness calls to mind vegetation that keeps hillsides from falling away and deserts from claiming more land. As John’s feeding of the multitude begins the Bread of Life series, the abundance of what is needed and the power of the sea draw us into the reality of God’s provision. God provides enough, yet it is hoarded by the few, whether it is a powerful king’s sexual exploits and brash military might or today’s world of unnecessary poverty and hunger. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-7-9thsundayafterpentecost-yrb monthly 0.5 2024-07-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1721048525077-US3AOSVPVFTBFGS7KOWA/363360264_334777698872061_5200814175758916845_n.jpg Wild Lectionary - Ninth Sunday After Pentecost, Year B: Tent, Temple, Shepherd, King The Salal + Cedar community, which hosts and curates Wild Lectionary, seeks to grow a culture that values rest, sabbath and a sense of “enough” over scarcity. This week we did not have a contributor for Wild Lectionary so project curator Laurel Dykstra patchworked together this offering with minimal verse by verse commentary and some sermon excerpts rather than suggestions for preaching.

Divine care for creation, the pervasiveness of water in scripture, and the persistent association of prophets with the more than human world, all feature in the readings and are worthy of at least brief homiletic exploration. But the preacher who intends to focus primarily on ecological justice this week, will need to draw from their own watershed context and the broad themes of the books and genres, more than the assigned verses. Amos, Psalm 24, the letter to the Ephesians and the Gospel of Mark all have worldviews and perspectives on the more-than-human world with relevance to climate change. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-6-7thsunday-yrb monthly 0.5 2024-06-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1719762713919-3C9JYHQT3MGH0KZLVSSH/Still_We_Reach_For_One_Another-Kate-Morales.png Wild Lectionary - Seventh Sunday after Pentecost, Year B: Cultivating Beloved Community - Vic Welle While limited in terms of ecological imagery, the readings offer an opportunity to reflect on issues important to movements for social change and cultivating beloved community. The readings offer insight into how leadership and authority is determined, the role of illness and disability, and which perspectives are centered in climate justice and related movements for liberation. Central questions for reflection include: What and who do we consider an authority, and what is the source of knowing? Who is included in community? Whose voices do we listen to, and whose do we devalue? https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-6-sixthafterpent monthly 0.5 2024-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1719195267893-92HY4FSL3BESWJP3XV42/800px-Soil_Survey07_%2839041762562%29.jpg Wild Lectionary - Sixth Sunday After Pentecost, Year B: The Scarred Sacred - Rachel Field Lectionary Readings 2 Sam 1:1, 17-27; Ps 130; 2 Cor 8:7-15; Mk 5:21-43 https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-6-5thsundayafterpentecost-yearb monthly 0.5 2024-06-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1718491256172-950CI8VQDXCZ93O5U74A/wildlect-post.png Wild Lectionary - Fifth Sunday after Pentecost, Year B: Climate Anxiety and Workers’ Bodies - Andrew Hudson The ecological themes are all over this week, but they converge in the experiences of three of the “leading men” of the Bible: David, Paul and Jesus. An ecological approach helps follow along with them as they point their contemporaries and us toward the Creator. These are people who, rather than be above it all, had harrowing life experiences and came through them - with Divine help. This will hopefully help congregations with ecological angst and/or people who suffer in their bodily experience that is often unacknowledged. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-6-4thafterpentecost-yearb monthly 0.5 2024-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1718036039549-5GZISEJ5FHFIM0C3YMQP/Salal+Cedar+plant+photo.jpg Wild Lectionary - Fourth Sunday after Pentecost, Year B: Kings and Trees, Seeds and Weeds - Laurel Dykstra This week the lectionary focus is kings and kingdoms mediated through the language of plants. The semi-continuous track speaks explicitly of kings with the anointing of the shepherd-king David while the thematic track gives us cedars and palm trees. In addition to wisdom about human leadership and politics derived from the plant (ahem) kingdom, there are warnings about wealth extracted from the more than human world. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-5-holy-disruption monthly 0.5 2024-06-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1717223928070-QLAHOXL9AKXHB54FMYRP/Church+Front+2019.jpg Wild Lectionary - Third Sunday After Pentecost: Repentance as Holy Disruption - Justin Cheng Metanoia translated in most English translations as ‘Repent’ should be understood as a “change of mind, a reorientation, a fundamental transformation of outlook.” (Repentance and Confession) Each of the readings assigned for the Sunday between 5 and 11 June in their way, disrupt a dominant perspective and in this disruption, sparks a metanoia that can make possible new ways of thinking and doing. Borrowing from Buddhist wisdom that right thinking leads to right action, this praxis of disrupting dominant perspective, opening one’s mind and leading to new thinking and new action can be effective in thinking and acting ecologically. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-5-2nd-after-pentecost-b monthly 0.5 2024-05-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1716668851726-GJTLJIUMYSAE5FECSM57/unnamed+%282%29.jpg Wild Lectionary - 2nd Sunday after Pentecost: Say Yes to Life. - On the Seventh Day © Jan Richardson. janrichardson.com https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/523d625b-ac37-4ac9-88b2-ad1d488d0264/farmer.jpg Wild Lectionary - 2nd Sunday after Pentecost: Say Yes to Life.

It feels fitting, then, that these Trinity Sunday readings are filled with multiple meanings, mysteries, and seeming-contradictions. Secret conversations are had under the cover of darkness (John) and cryptic messages are carried by winged creatures (Isaiah). The magnificence of God is felt through the waters and fires and forests (Psalms) and yet distinctions are made between flesh and spirit, heaven and earth (Romans and John). What shall we make of it all? This week, we are invited to explore the strange spaces beyond and between the binaries. To situate ourselves as small parts within a greater whole. To face our lack of understanding with humility and awe. And to step out into the darkness so that we might better hear the secrets of the night. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-5-pentecost-yearb monthly 0.5 2024-05-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1715616622280-TNRU9B07ALDDHZ3SSG8V/pentecostart.png Wild Lectionary - Pentecost Year B: Queries and Quarks - Rev Dr Dawna Wall The Pentecost readings this year give us rich, vibrant and troubling images of the Holiness of the Spirit and of Her work and presence with us and all creation. In the Valley of Dry Bones (Ezekiel 37:1-14) we have the profound and disturbing image of the Holy One and the prophet conversing and traversing the remains of the ancestors. Each asking questions of the other about how life and breath is given and received, as the complexity of the body and its matter come together. The Psalm (Psalm 104:25-35, 37) celebrates the diversity and expansiveness of creation – here we find trembling, terror, generosity, sport, a filling and emptying that rise and crash and give expression to our own lived experience of the natural world. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-5-ascension-yearb monthly 0.5 2024-05-06 https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-4-easter-6-year-b monthly 0.5 2024-05-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1714524667032-CBL4TPCMWMJZJ6QMD9K1/endangered.jpg Wild Lectionary - Easter 6, Year B: Expanding Definitions: Friendship - The Rev. Alecia Greenfield I have called you a friend. Being a friend can be difficult. Friendship doesn't have the same predictable patterns as families or the structure of teacher/student, master/servant. It is easy to make relationship errors when the bonds are affection (not rules and expectations). We humans tend to stick to friendships in the safe space of familiar patterns. We mostly imagine friends as people and often stick to people who look like us, talk like us, and live in similar economic situations. It feels safer. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-4-nq7vampqmv9wrqe3cl62n4ks3gvw05 monthly 0.5 2024-04-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1713900751727-BK5BQOZQ15EGPYBROY4Z/Menologion_of_Basil_006.jpg Wild Lectionary - Face to Face with the Other - Rev Brynn Craffey Considering that the events in Acts 8:26-40 take place on the road going down from Jerusalem to Gaza, I feel compelled as a priest, American citizen, and human being to make a strong statement here against the genocide occurring in modern Gaza even as I write this, and to call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire and official recognition by the United States of the Palestinian state. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-4-easter5-yearb monthly 0.5 2024-04-19 https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-4-easter-4b monthly 0.5 2024-04-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1713221675267-RR6CHO3W0GVAMQVRJA7V/Good_shepherd_icon.jpg Wild Lectionary - Easter 4, Year B: Christ as Shepherd and Cornerstone - Amy L. Dalton The lectionary texts for the Fourth Sunday of Easter bring into focus what Guidance might be available to all who find ourselves facing down the forces of death, violence, division and hate. It just so happens that many of the folks that I am encountering who are doing this just now with the full force of their being do not identify as “religious.” I think it is a notable coincidence, then, that the texts from this week draw out the humanist or “non-theist” aspects of the Christian path – which are in fact doctrinally integral, but have often been “picked and refused” by the builders of the church. Viewed in this way, the Easter story provides all people with a template for a Way of living that has the effect of dismantling the power of death-dealing. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-4-easter-3 monthly 0.5 2024-04-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/815f3e8d-428c-43e6-af29-ab56b6ff9ee5/28164984701_eb2d08867d_o.jpg Wild Lectionary - Easter 3 Year B: All Bodies Are Good Bodies - Laurel Dykstra While the lections assigned for this week do not at first glance seem to have a lot of environmental content, the passages from Acts and the Gospel actually have some very relevant themes when we stop looking for references to “nature” and broaden our focus to an ecological justice framework and the complex web of interspecies economics which that entails. Both the healing of a lame beggar in Acts and the focus on the corporeality of the risen Jesus in the Gospel portion from Luke emphasize the importance of bodies. These passages give preachers and teachers the opportunity to consider the goodness of bodies, disability theology, disability and poverty, environmental racism, and the disproportionate impact of climate change on people with disabilities. The brief reference to fish in Luke points to inter-species and inter-human relationships in the Galilean fishing economy inviting reflection on local fish and global depletion of fish stocks. Not every preacher will choose ecological justice for their major theme this week but there is plenty of material here that can be incorporated to keep the urgency of the climate crisis in the fore. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-4-second-sunday-of-easter-year-b monthly 0.5 2024-04-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1711978299253-5IHELFWZ9XAH4IGM3D3D/14101152439_2ea06861e2_o.jpg Wild Lectionary - Second Sunday of Easter, year ‘B’: Burden of Proof - Featured contributor: The Rev. Helen Dunn The Second Sunday of Easter is traditionally called “Low Sunday” to reflect a “somewhat less intense celebration.” The readings appointed for this Sunday, though, reflect anything but. In Acts, the people first called Christians are on the move: folks from different tribes and nations pool their money and possessions; the word that Jesus is risen is out; in a subversive act, land is sold—the earth freeing up financial resources to flatten systems of oppression where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. In the psalm appointed for the day, a mountain shows itself to be teacher: instructing the human kin in what it means to dwell together in unity. Then, in a letter and a gospel from the Johannine community we see the earth assuming the burden of proof in the case for Jesus: where humans fail to believe, light and darkness and the whole of creation step up to the witness stand—showing Jesus to be who he said he was, beyond a reasonable doubt. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-3-easter-sunday-year-b monthly 0.5 2024-03-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/3f8fbdf9-69c3-495e-84da-70e5bb5db026/20170613_073211.jpg Wild Lectionary - Easter Sunday Year B: Garden and Dominion - Featured Contributors: Wes Howard-Brook and Sue Ferguson Johnson We explore in this week’s readings three wilderness themes: Firstly, the interwoven hope for healing between humans/earth, humans/God and humans with each other in the echoes from Song of Songs in John 20. Second, the awareness of the imperial death “shroud” that seeks to separate the Creator from the creation that is addressed in Isaiah 25. And finally, the holy call to embrace all creation as family in the passage from Acts 10. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-3-palm-sunday monthly 0.5 2024-03-17 https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-3-resisting-christian-anti-judaism monthly 0.5 2025-04-07 https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-3-5thsundayoflent monthly 0.5 2024-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1710174725673-425IP9A36LC27P0EU2VF/Soul+Map.jpeg Wild Lectionary - Fifth Sunday in Lent, year ‘B’: Not Just for Humans - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-3-uh2bxahdp4148uc6dc1h67npfih8ji monthly 0.5 2024-03-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/4ea02bf3-1ad3-4cc8-9c78-137a145343a4/1_Marie_v_Idemili.jpg Wild Lectionary - Fourth Sunday in Lent, year ‘B’: Transformation - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2024-2-third-sunday-in-lent-year-b-bewildered monthly 0.5 2024-02-27 https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2023-12-advent-4b-defiance-and-hope-on-the-land monthly 0.5 2023-12-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1702662100221-UA1RY8UOIIT0OCJQGX55/410027637_371675445369015_313256080369128137_n.jpg Wild Lectionary - Advent 4B: Defiance and Hope on the Land - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2023-12-advent3 monthly 0.5 2024-02-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1701823676355-7BLPKLFCOC0Q6UIQEM16/KenGrayShoot+%281+of+31%29.jpg Wild Lectionary - Advent 3B Love in Action During Precarious Times - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2023-12-advent2 monthly 0.5 2024-02-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65402cc46f5a591da9ea9b0d/1cc0c9a8-2f37-4429-9bc9-98cd2665a33a/20231002_Woods.jpg Wild Lectionary - Advent 2B Wilderness: the Entrance Way to Hope - Featured contributor Rev. Dr. Victoria Marie Wilderness, desert, valleys, mountains, hills, grass, flowers, flocks, heaven, earth, fire, river, insects: the lectionary readings are full of images from the more than human world. Every year the second week of Advent tells us a different version of the wilderness prophet John the Baptizer and the themes of water, wilderness, and repentance speak powerfully to the realities of pollution, extinction and human-caused climate change. https://www.salalandcedar.com/wildlectionary/2023-advent1 monthly 0.5 2024-02-27
