[Magdalen] this morning's sermon

[Grace Cangialosi]

I also preached on the Psalm, having found a really wonderful reflection/commentary on it and wanting to deal with that awful last verse. The reader this morning hadn't looked ahead, and because of the way the verses occurred, he had to read that verse alone--he has a two-year-old daughter and said he nearly choked on it.
I did, however, find a way to connect the Psalm with the first part of the Gospel.
