Sermon, 1st Sunday after Trinity, 2024

The color of the Trinity season is green to represent the spiritual growth of the season.  But what is spiritual growth?  Is there a process for it?  How do the Trinity season Bible readings of the Book of Common Prayer fit into this theme?  David G. Phillips has proposed that these lessons are structured around the medieval three fold way of growth in holiness applied to each of the seven deadly sins.  This sermon introduces this topic which we will more thoroughly explore this Trinity season.  His original paper can be found here and is highly recommended reading.
