>OPINION

>COMMENTARY: Preparing for the morning after

>By Tom Ehrich

[Religion News Service] I am eager to vote on November 4. In my mind,  this
is the most important national election since 1860.

I hope you are eager to vote, too. It is our duty as citizens to  participate
in the free speech and free elections that define our democracy. If we  hold
back on our opinions and stay home on Election Day, we deprive the
commonwealth of our unique voice.

Some believe that it is their Christian duty to vote a certain way. I
dispute that. These elections aren't about a so-called "Christian  agenda."
At their best, candidates and their campaigns have spoken to the values  that
Americans hold, not to a uniquely Christian package of virtues and  views.

Twenty-Fifth Sunday After Pentecost, Proper 26 - Year A [RCL]

Joshua 3:7-17, Psalm 107:1-7, 33-37; or Micah 3:5-12, Psalm 43; 1
Thessalonians 2:9-13; Matthew 23:1-12

>By the Rev. Mary K. Morrison

[Sermons That Work] One way to approach scripture is by asking ourselves  two
questions.

"What's going on here?" is the first. It forces us to delve a little  deeper,
to see if we can get a handle on the passage in question and really
understand it.

The second question is "What does that mean for us?" This question is  often
the more difficult because, of course, it forces us to consider our own  ways
of thinking and acting in light of the gospel values.
