Sermon and Liturgy for Ordinary 22 - Proper 17 - Year C.
Here's what caught my eye:
"I want you all to do something unexpected - and perhaps a bit uncomfortable for you. I want you to change seats - to move around to a place where you rarely, if ever sit.

Thinking about trying it with my congregation. Though, this could spark a revolt....!
