Thursday of the Third Week in Ordinary Time. Father Dave discusses today's Gospel in which Jesus tells us not to hide our light under a bushel basket. He points out that in the time of Jesus, people used oil lamps. Putting an oil lamp under a bushel basket would cause it to catch fire. Father Dave reflects on the danger of covering our light rather than sharing it with others. Preached at Saint Paul the Apostle Church, New York City on 2-01-22
