    Monday of 22nd week in Course 1 Cor 2: 1-5; Lk 4: 16-30 Hearing today’s Gospel with fresh ears might lead some of us to be a little critical of Jesus.

     | 628 views

    The choice is tied up with the Father’s decision to adopt us as sons and daughters, siblings by adoption with His only-begotten Son. For what purpose?
