Jesus challenges us to strive—to challenge ourselves—to grow more radically in compassion and understanding.
A more just world requires less time fussing around making sacrifices and burnt offerings and more time sitting in and sharing the love of God.
In this week’s Gospel, Jesus essentially says “hold up, hold up, hold up—take a good hard look at yourself.”
