The Importance of Being a Witness

Readings For the 31st Sunday in Ordinary Time - Malachi 1:14b-2:2b, 8-10; Matthew 23:1-12Don't come to today's readings for consolation.  Instead, come for strength, because that's what we see from Jesus and that's what he exhorts from us.  Anyone can profess to be a follower of His and proclaim themselves good.  But God knows the heart.  God knows our real intentions.  And the priests/Pharisees/Sadducees get a large helping of humble pie.  But we can't watch from the sidelines.  We are them and they are us.  We, too, must walk the talk if we don't want the finger pointed in our direction.Special thanks to Bridget Zenk for her composition and performance of our intake and outtake music.  And thank you to you for being alongside of me and opening God's Word with me.  Questions?  Thoughts?  Send them my way at [email protected]
