Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time. Being a good host. Leaving the door open for the outsider, for the unexpected. Dealing with the stuff versus being with your guest. Being receptive, allowing God to work. Creating some space amidst the noise.

Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time. Letter of the law: blurring the lines. Trying to justify your actions. Making rules doesn't end the game: you still have to play, and the rules don't cover everything. The Law is written in your heart.

Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time. Body things relative to the Covenants. Security in abundance. Advance men for the Kingdom; you need to work on this. Wolves. What if we actually cared about our Christian duty?

Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time. Cranky prophets. Using this hyperbole to wander into heresies. Burning your bridges so you can't welch on your commitment, so you take your best shot. You don't need to be flawless to do good work.

Hey! We got an opening jingle! Cool!

Hey! We got an opening jingle! Cool!

Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time. Acting beyond the law, following or ignoring the rules, acting from your passion, being forgiven because of your love and faith. I guess if you have no love or faith we don't have to forgive you. Father's Day.

The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ. Melchizedek as a random interloper. Body images and being fed. Dave is on a cell phone; there's some crackles. Fundamentalists rejecting difficult literalism. Anti-Catholicism and it's cause all in one.

Trinity Sunday. Various heresies (that we're espousing). Random philosophies and numbers. Interactions of the Spirit with other members of the Trinity. We have bad theology and bad biology!

Pentecost. Hiding in a room. Tangents. Spirituality and the flesh. Doing what the Spirit prompts. The body as a microcosm of the macrocosm. And a lame ending...
