Readings for the 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Wisdom 2:12, 17-20; Mark 9:30-37
Jesus picks up on the same topic that he ended with last week - if we are to be a follower of His, it leads to Jerusalem and the cross. This is the second time of three times that Jesus will make these statements to his disciples. Why so often? Because it goes against everything our culture and those voices inside of our heads tell us to do. We are always striving to do better than others, to looks smarter, to be more successful. But do we ever stop to ask ourselves why? What is motivating us to act in such a way? What are we protecting? Because as Jesus reminds us (for the second time), it's not the Kingdom of God that is asking us to live in such a manner.
Special thanks to Bridget Zenk for her composition and performing of our intake and outtake music. And thank you to all of you for continuing to listen and share this podcast with others. I'm incredibly humbled. Do you have a question or comment? I can be reached at pdjoezenk@gmail.com
