Citing of the Week
"We have to offer interpretative resources of symbol and story, of action, to nudge our culture, and ourselves, ever more toward transformation in light of the gospel."

The complaint department is closed
The opponents of Jesus “complained”—another translation says “grumbled”—that “this man welcomes sinners and eats with them.” You can almost hear their disdain, even their hatred, for both those who sin as well as anyone who would dare sit down at a table with them. Their derision blinded them to the fact that they were sinners as much as anyone. “Why then do you judge your brother or sister? Or you, why do you look down on your brother or sister?” Saint Paul asked the Romans. “For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God.” No excuses, no exceptions. It’s a message we all need to get.
TODAY’S READINGS: Romans 14:7-12; Luke 15:1-10 (488)
