Year C, Proper 13

from At Home with the Lectionary

Join Fr. Aaron & Marissa Burt for this week's episode, in which they consider the readings for Proper 13, the Sunday between 7/31-8/6: Ecclesiastes 1:12-2:11; Psalm 49:1-12 (13-21); Colossians 3:5-17; Luke 12:13-21. They discuss the ephemeral nature of wealth, the wisdom of Ecclesiastes, the transforming work of Christ, and Jesus' invitation to generosity. Notes: Aaron notes: "I have enjoyed this book so far, but it focuses on only one aspect of Ecclesiastes—keeping death in mind. I want everyone to hear that Ecclesiastes has so much more to offer than simply that."
