Ok, it's a little challenging.
Go to episcopaldigitalnetwork.com which will take you to Episcopal News Service. Put in Presiding Bishop Preaches and hit the search button.
I'll be interested in your opinion...

Some of the sermons may be of particular relevancer to specific places, and so of little general import, but surely she has said something significant this year.

Nevertheless she is the Church's chief minister and should be someone who gives a lead in significant matters.  Given the way that others with a particular perspective might well want to edit her words to suit their purposes it would be helpful to know what she actually said, not simply what particular interest groups havce reported.

I know we have different ecclesiologies but in reality Archbishop Justin's jurisdiction is not that great, but he wants to use his influence to promote Gospel values.
