Necessary Suffering

What this episode covers

(Proper 15 - The Rev. Betsy Payne Rosen) If the good news can only come after the bad news has broken through, then no matter how alluring the dream may have seemed while we were lost in it-the dream of uninterrupted prosperity, of frictionless family relationships; watching the future roll out in front of us at the top of the curve, as if no bottoms existed--it's still better to be awake. Still better to live in kairos time, one foot here and one foot in eternity.
