No Walls

from Cup o' Joe · host Joseph Zenk

Readings for the 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Isaiah 56:1, 6-7; Matthew 15:21-28 This weekend's Gospel is such an interesting one. We hear and see Jesus presented in a unique manner not otherwise seen in the Gospel. Jesus shows resistance to the outsider. Was this a test? Was it a cultural blind spot? I don't have that answer. But what we do know and what comes through clearly in both readings is that there is no "us and them". No "in and out'. Any walls we create in our own lives must be taken down. God's house shall be a house for all peoples...not just the ones we think are in. Special thanks to Bridget Zenk for her composition and performing of our intake and outtake music. And thank you for opening yourself to the Word of God. Comments? Questions? Send them my way at [email protected]
