THE POWER OF DARKNESS
SERMONS FOR LENT AND EASTER (SUNDAYS IN ORDINARY TIME)
This is a great moment in John's gospel. Those of us who have heard "goodbye" speeches before, may not be impressed. But this one is different. It is given between two worlds. We are still in the upper room and in the waning moments of the Last Supper. But Jesus is also only hours away from the Cross. Nor is this a usual farewell pep-talk. In fact it is not a talk at all, but a prayer. But here too it is different, because it is not a "give-me" kind of prayer.
