24th Sunday of Ordinary Time

Today's readings explore the radical, almost unsettling scope of forgiveness — how far it must extend, and what it costs us to withhold it. Sirach opens with a sharp challenge about anger and mercy, while the Gospel brings that challenge to life through a parable that measures our forgiveness against the immeasurable forgiveness we ourselves have received. Today's Readings: • First Reading: Sirach 27:30—28:7 • Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 103:1-2, 3-4, 9-10, 11-12 • Second Reading: Romans 14:7-9 • Gospel: Matthew 18:21-35
