Ched Myers and Elaine Enns of The Bartimaeus Institute reflect on the Gospel's call to pursue restorative justice for people and the planet: "We usually hear 'when two or three gathered in my name, I am in their midst' as a pious thought about God being with us, but it's actually about how restorative justice is accomplished."
The readings for this first Sunday in the Season of Creation are: Ezekiel 33:7-11; Psalm 119:33-40; Romans 13:8-14; and Matthew 18:15-20.
Preached on September 6, 2026 at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, Ojai, California.
