Thanksgiving Day – St. Mark’s Episcopal Cathedral

Archbishop Murphy preached this sermon at a Thanksgiving celebration at St. Mark’s Episcopal Cathedral in Seattle, WA. He characterizes Thanksgiving as the prelude to the waiting experience of the Advent season. “Our celebration of Thanksgiving brings us to this place of worship to hear God’s Word,” said Archbishop Murphy. “We must do more than listen to this Word. The apostle James challenges us to be doers of the Word, people who take the risk to let the Lord come alive again today within our midst.”
