Does Jesus Need Us To Defend Him?

from Cup o' Joe Hosted by Joseph Zenk

Readings for the 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time - Jeremiah 20:7-9; Matthew 16:21-27 The readings this weekend pick up immediately following where we left off last week - Jesus asks his disciples who people say he is and Peter correctly responds. But Peter couldn't leave well enough alone. After Jesus describes where this calling will take him, Peter attempts to talk him out of it. And Jesus admonishes Peter, stating that Peter is thinking not as God does but as humans do. And just what does that thinking look like? And should we take the same warning?
