From the propers this week, Fr. Harris reflects on the way our culture prizes the grand and dramatic, while the Gospel calls us to attend to the small, the quiet, and the steady. In Acts, Saint Paul receives not a vision of angels but a dream of an ordinary man. The New Life is not lived in fireworks, but in attentiveness and imitation. Bread and wine, prayer, and fellowship are the essential dimensions of Christian life. God is not absent from the big moments, but He is most often found in the plain details of daily life.
