About this episode

This episode features a sermon discussing the significance of footwashing and the Eucharist in the context of Maundy Thursday.

Here is today’s sermon, April 2, 2026, Maundy Thursday, Year A. It is based on John 13:1-17, 31b-35, the Footwashing. In it, I discuss the term, anamnesis, in which the act of recollecting or remembering makes present the person. I note how the footwashing and the Eucharist are not nostalgia, but active remembering to be aware of the presence of Christ in our action.
