| Focusing
the Gospel |
Key words and phrases: give, glory, ones you have given me
|
To
the point: The gospel is about mutual giving between Jesus and the Father, and our being called into the same life of self-giving. We are to give ourselves to God and one another in live and service. In this is God’s glory and ours.
|
|
Connecting
the Gospel
|
to
the second reading: This Sunday we are reminded that glory comes to us only through our sharing “in the sufferings of Christ.”
|
to experience: Tired of always reported bad news when a national news center asked viewers to share stories of good news, reports of deeds of extraordinary self-giving to which the gospel calls us is more abundant and evident than we sometimes think. God’s glory abounds.
