When Christ Is King ...
Sermon
Sermons on the Second Readings
Series II, Cycle C
Many people don't like the theological language of Christ as king. They say it is too old-fashioned: democracies don't have kings. They say it is too masculine: we all believe in gender equality. What they don't say is what it means. When we declare that Christ is king, we mean that Christ is the most important matter, the one with the most power for us, personally. On Christ the King Sunday this is a great day to see what this means -- whether we like the language of king or not.
