One from the Vaults: Parental Guidance

Abigail Adams, inclusive God-language, and Broadway as midrash. From the vaults of The Musical Midrash Podcast.

What does it mean to meet God with new language — and to tell old stories in a new voice?

In this restored sermon, we meet Abigail Adams, Broadway, and the ever-expanding God of Isaiah. We trace the evolution of theology, of national myth, and of who gets remembered. And we affirm that welcoming the new doesn’t mean eliminating the old — it just means recognizing that God has always been more.

✨ Featuring reflections on:

– God as Creator of the Way

– Abigail Adams and the theology of founding

1776, Hamilton, and casting as sacred re-narration

– Inclusive God-language

– The gentle work of learning new names for the Divine

📖 Isaiah 43:16–21

📍 Preached April 6, 2025 | Summit Avenue Presbyterian Church, Lent 5
