My friend Dave got a Seinfeld Lego’s Set. I really want to play with it. I want to make Kramer barge in. I want to shut the Lego door in Newman’s face. I want to have George sit on the Lego sofa and do nothing, like he does so well.

Seinfeld is a self-proclaimed show about nothing, which is its genius. Because it really is about everything in life, from parking to puffy shirts. The gospel is like that. It isn’t tucked away in a “spirituality drawer”, or trotted out at Christmas and Easter. The grace of God is about everything.

“From Christ’s fullness we have all receive grace upon grace.” (John 1:16)

“Lord, we pray that your grace may always precede and follow us, that we may continually be given to good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.” (Proper 23 – BCP)
