Marisol Caballero's service on November 25, 2012. Kermit T. Frog's famous ballad, "The Rainbow Connection," has had a profound impact on my life, my theology, and my call to ministry. As I age, I have begun to recognize that Jim Henson's words and characters have helped form so many of us in similar ways. This sermon will celebrate the wisdom of this unexpectedly prophetic man, who together with his puppets, continues to help change the world more than 20 years after his death.
