Going Out on a Limb
from The Word at Christ the Savior Hosted by Christ the Savior American Coptic Orthodox Church
Zacchaeus lived the corrupt life of a tax collector but he had no regard for society’s validation or approval. This quality validated his crooked way of life but it also emboldened him to bear the humiliation of looking foolish while climbing a Sycamore tree in order to satisfy his desire to see Jesus. At the core of this quality is the virtue of humility. Fr. Joseph explains how Zacchaeus exercised this humility by recognizing his brokenness and staying true to himself. And from this awareness he ignored what others thought about him and sought to see Jesus. Tune in to hear more about how we can ignore the pressure to gain the world’s approval and seek Jesus at all costs. Fr. Joseph Abraham – September 26, 2021 Christ the Savior American Coptic Orthodox Church Diocese of Los Angeles www.thegoodsavior.org Christ the Savior American Coptic Orthodox Church Diocese of Los Angeles www.thegoodsavior.org
