22nd Sunday - C (August 28, 2022)

 

Dining with Jesus

Luke 7: 1, 7-14

 

We are “the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind” invited by Jesus at every Eucharist celebration. 

 

May we grow in gratitude for the privilege of being invited to the Lord’s banquet.

21st Sunday - C (August 21, 2022)

God’s Guests

“People will come from the east and the west and from the north and the south
and will recline at table in the kingdom of God,”
 
Do I accept God’s openness, or do I have my own standards of who should be in and who should be out? Meanwhile, it’s not my kingdom. It’s God’s.

20th Sunday - C (August 14, 2022)

 

The Fire of Jesus

Luke 12: 49-53

 

Last Sunday, Jesus declared, “Your Father is pleased to give  you the kingdom” (Luke 12:32).

 

Today, as we continue with the same chapter, Jesus might be asking me to consider what in me must be purified by the fire of his love so that the Father’s gift of the Kingdom might be blazing.

The Gift of God’s Kingdom

Luke 12: 32-48

 

Two Sundays ago, Jesus taught to pray, “Father, your kingdom come.” 

 

Today, Jesus assures us, “Your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom.”

 

What can be greater than this gift of God’s love for us?
