Henry Klippenstein - “The Pearl of Great Price (Pt. II)”
Sermon Recording: Download
TOPIC
Henry Klippenstein asked, what is that one thing that you would be willing to give up everything to obtain? Out of duality-thinking (Rohr) arise our judgements and opinions - our false self (Merton) which Jesus calls to abandon in favour of our true selves (Mark 8). God is in our DNA - the ‘true self’ that is in God. We cannot abandon or discard our false self with heroic effort, but we can side-step it with the lessons taught by others - elderly, handicapped, the young, who teach us the value of the experience of the present moment. This is our lifelong mission, and the pearl of great price. [AP]
