7th Sunday in Ordinary Time

The Countercultural Christ! Join Dina Marie Hale on this weekly broadcast as she reflects upon the readings for the 7th Sunday in Ordinary Time. The readings for the Mass are from I Samuel, Psalm 103, I Corinthians and the Gospel of Luke. Today we continue to hear the message of Jesus - on the plain. He unpacks a countercultural way of life - and how to treat those who are our enemies. We are called to a life of love and kindness, to be merciful as God is merciful. May we trust in the Lord and find joy and happiness in his ways and wisdom. Now, join us for this reflection with Dina Marie.
