  • Lazarus Will Rise - The Rev. Mike Angell

    Lazarus Will Rise - The Rev. Mike Angell
    Mar 22 2026

    This sermon reflects on Jesus’ raising of Lazarus as the culmination of his life‑giving ministry and a witness to God’s desire for human beings to be fully alive. It challenges Christians to confront the death‑dealing powers of our world that deny abundant life to so many. It ends by returning to the honest questions of a child, grounding hope in the conviction that no one is abandoned to the tomb.

    The Algorithm Doesn't Want you to Listen to this Sermon - The Rev. Mike Angell
    Mar 15 2026

    We live in a world that trains us to scroll past complexity and look away from suffering. This sermon invites us to resist that pressure and to see again with the clarity, nuance, and courage Lent demands. From encounters with unhoused neighbors to rising antisemitism, and from disability justice to digital distraction, we’ll ask what God longs for us to see. And where the Spirit is already helping us take a second look.

  • What is the Bible? with the Rev. Mike Angell (Part of our Newcomers' Class)

    What is the Bible? with the Rev. Mike Angell (Part of our Newcomers' Class)
    Mar 13 2026

    In this session of our newcomers class at St. Michael and All Angels in Albuquerque, we explore how Christians — especially in the Episcopal tradition — understand the Bible as a library of texts written across many centuries.

    Together we look at the structure of the Hebrew Bible (the TaNaK), the origins of the New Testament, how the canon came to be, and why different Christian communities treat biblical books differently.

    We also talk about interpretation: literalism, inspiration, and how Episcopalians read scripture in community. Rather than treating the Bible as a rulebook, we look for the larger direction it points us toward — freedom, life, and the possibility of becoming fully alive in God.

    This class is part of our “Newcomers Class” a series for newcomers and the curious. If you're wondering how Episcopalians approach scripture — historically, theologically, and spiritually — this video is a great place to start.

    Join us Sunday for discussion, questions, and some hands-on engagement with the text.

    🙏 Thanks for watching, and God bless.
