Church request! “A liturgy for the timely release of an abuse investigation report, accompanied by the contract that guided the investigation.” Needs a catchier title though. Perhaps “A Liturgy for the Avoidance of Millstones”? Let judgment begin with the household of God.
In Romans 1:18-32, Paul is rehashing Jewish stereotypes of Gentile sinners. He’s getting the “you,” the “judge,” of ch. 2 to nod along and say “Amen!” before springing the trap at 2:1. Can’t help but wonder what kind of Christian stereotypes of “sinners” Paul would draw on today!

Given what Paul’s doing in Romans 1-2 (It’s a trap!), it’s pastoral malpractice to preach the “clobber passage” of 1.18-32 without also talking about chapter 2’s critique of self-righteousness. I’d love to hear a sermon that replicates Paul’s rhetorical trap.
