For Sunday
-
The Mary and Martha story in Luke is so familiar. We make typologies of the characters. And often avoid its significance.
-
In the parable of the Good Samaritan, Jesus offers a picture of compassion and generosity, rather than self-protection.
-
Jesus sends the twelve out to bring his work out into the world through them. Sometimes we get stuck on when it doesn’t work.
-
The question is almost never Are the disciples right about this? It is almost always Why don’t they listen to Jesus?
-
When Jesus encounters the demonic, we may not be sure what to do with that. But look at what others do with that…
-
In the gospel for Trinity Sunday, we have a vision of a departing Jesus and a promised presence: something better.
