I remember one time when vandals hit our church's Day Care. They were very thorough. We can't be too surprised to learn that sin is alive and well in the world. We see it every day in ourselves.
Some people think it is particularly despicable when church facilities are vandalized.
That should also be no big surprise. This Sunday's Gospel Lesson reminds us that evil's prime target is always that which is good. Jesus, the Best of Good, was no exception. The lesson begins with the concluding verse from last Sunday's lesson. As Jesus began to show the people in the synagogue at Nazareth how Isaiah's prophecy was being fulfilled at that moment, the reaction of the crowd was very positive.
