He tells of a homeless man on Hollywood Boulevard who thought he was invisible. One day a kid handed the man a Christian pamphlet. The homeless man was shocked and amazed, \u201cWhat?! You can <em>see<\/em> me? How can you see me? I\u2019m <em>invisible<\/em>!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It isn\u2019t hard to comprehend this man\u2019s spiral into invisibility. Once on the street, people started to walk past him, ignoring him as if he didn\u2019t exist. \u201cIt\u2019s not that people are bad,\u201d Horvath says, \u201cbut if we make eye contact, then we have to admit that they exist, and that we might have a basic human need to care. It\u2019s so much easier to close our eyes and shield our hearts from their existence.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>By way of <em><a href=\"http:\/\/invisiblepeople.tv\/blog\/\">invisible-people-tv<\/a><\/em>, Horvath uses the lens of a television camera to tell the stories of homelessness and the organizations trying to help. His stated purpose is to make the invisible visible\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Discussion Questions<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>When you have encountered a homeless person on the streets of the town or city where you live, have you found yourself looking the other way? Can you say why? Does Horvath\u2019s explanation above ring a bell?<\/li>\n<li>Talk about a time when you looked at someone you thought you knew well, but at that moment, you felt as though you were seeing him or her <em>for the very first time.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Have you yourself ever been in a situation where <em>you<\/em> felt invisible, as if everyone was looking past you and not seeing you? Say some more about it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Scripture Texts (NRSV) for Sunday, June 6, 2010 (Second Sunday After Pentecost)<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bible.oremus.org\/?ql=141367199 \">1 Kings 17:17-24<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bible.oremus.org\/?ql=141367403 \">Galatians 1:11-24<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bible.oremus.org\/?ql=141367469 \">Luke 7:11-17<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>(Text links are to <a href=\"http:\/\/bible.oremus.org\/\">Oremus Bible Browser<\/a>.

She is a widow, meaning, of course, that she has lost a husband. Now she is in a funeral procession behind the body of her only son. She has she lost two people whom she loves, and because in her society (as in many yet today), a woman is totally dependent for economic support on a male to whom she is bound (father, husband, brother-in-law, or son), she now has no means to live.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>One miracle that Jesus performs in this episode is the one identified by the heading for this text in the Oremus Bible Browser: \u201cJesus Raises the Widow\u2019s Son at Nain.\u201d \u00a0It\u2019s true; he does, and to give new life to the dead is miracle enough.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But what strikes me as at least as great a miracle is that out of the midst of the large crowd that came to meet Jesus and his disciples when they entered the town, Jesus should actually <em>see<\/em> this woman. To be sure, she is in a funeral procession. But in a land where death was regular visitor, a funeral procession would not be as noticeable as it is in our day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This woman is very ordinary, and now rendered absolutely powerless and helpless by tragedy in her life. I wonder how many in the crowd looked past her as they rushed to the town gates to see this phenom Jesus who was arriving. But Jesus brought both the crowd\u2019s advance and the funeral procession itself to a halt by <em>seeing<\/em> the woman, taking notice of her&#8211;not only acknowledging her existence, but also addressing her grief and dire economic plight by returning to her the life of her son.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s reminiscent of the New Testament story which is just about every child\u2019s favorite.\u00a0 Zaccheus climbs up into a tree in order to see Jesus, but is, as it turns out, seen <em>by<\/em> Jesus, and his life transformed as a result (Luke 19:1-10). There\u2019s real power to heal and raise the dead in Jesus\u2019 sight.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Discussion Questions<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Can you think of incidents in the gospels where Jesus performs the miracle of giving <em>sight<\/em> to someone? What role do you think having sight has in the life of a disciple of Jesus?<em>\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Talk about a time when you were challenged to see someone else\u2019s need in a new way. Did your insight move you to respond to that person\u2019s need in any way?<em>\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Are there individuals or groups of person who may be \u201cinvisible\u201d at your church? Who is missing? Who is there, but hardly ever noticed?<em>\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Activity Suggestions<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Watch a story or two of homeless persons at: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.squidoo.com\/invisiblepeopletv\">http:\/\/www.squidoo.com\/invisiblepeopletv<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Pause for a few minutes to reflect on that person\u2019s story. Then write your thoughts in the comments section, or e-mail them to a friend and send them the link to the site.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Closing Prayer<\/h3>\n<p>Jesus, healer of our every ill, we thank you for looking upon us and seeing us in all our complexity and need. Heal our vision that we may be able to see others as you see them.
