Last week, John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness. John is like a midwife: He had the freedom, the passion, and the clear boundaries that are needed to get anything started. John is a wild man who "clears the threshing floor,"  but after that he really does not have much to do.

If the wolf can be the guest of the lamb, and the bear and cow be friends,  then no injury or hate can be a guest within the kingdom of my heart. Eden's peace and harmony will only return when first, in my heart, there hides no harm or ruin, for the Peaceable Kingdom is in my hands.

I have Mass at St. Isidore on Sunday, December 4 @ 7:30/9:30 am

 In this most unlikely of places the garden has suddenly returned. Paradise has emerged in the cross-bound conversation between two dying men: one a representative of sin reaching for wholeness,  the other a Son of the fullness of God reaching toward what has been lost.

Jesus is teaching us ow to live in the midst of collapse. "Do not be terrified!" Fear shuts us down. Instead, Jesus invites us  to see this as a gift: "When they bring you before kings and governors: This will give you an opportunity to testify."

I am in the Holy Land; we have Sunday Mass on the Mount of Olives at the Church of All Nations.

I will be home for Mass @ St. Isidore on November 20, 7:30/9:30 am

Whatever we believe about death is an important question for us because it not only changes the way we imagine God, it changes the way we live our lives.

The story begins with Zacchaeus wanting to see who Jesus was. Up until now, everyone has been looking down on Zacchaeus or overlooking him. For the first time in his life, someone looks up to Zacchaeus.

Prayer will always lead us back to one another. It is not about separation, but communion. It’s not about my being better than you, but God’s grace, through me, including you.

We don’t know anything about the widow’s cause, whether she is right or wrong; we only know one thing: she is faithful! She kept coming again and again, relentlessly pursuing her claim.

The lepers immediately demonstrate their faith by following Jesus’ instruction even though they still have their disease. Only as they are on their way do we find out that “they were made clean.” Jesus has responded to their cries by drawing from them an act of faith that results in their physical healing.
