A weekly overview of the Bible readings for each Sunday of the Church Year

  1. ١٦‏/٠٧‏/٢٠٢٥

    Series C, Sixth Sunday after Pentecost

    “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.” Luke10:41b-42. Mary’s choice of “the good portion, which will not be taken away from her” is choosing the eternal in time. The repetition of the existential choice of the immortal will always be conflicted because, as body, we default to Martha’s choice which sees the material as helpful, needful, and essential. This defaulting to the body means we are embarked on a life of repentance for repeatedly missing the one thing needful.

    Series C, Fifth Sunday after Pentecost

    But [the lawyer], desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbour?” Luke 10:29. The lawyer represents all the self-acclaimed critical thinkers whose criticism is directed outward rather than the self-criticism of repentance that is made possible by God’s promise of forgiveness. Forgiveness amps up the self-criticism of repentance rather than making it unnecessary.

    Series C, Fourth Sunday after Pentecost

    “Do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” Luke 10:20. The joy of salvation is not outside subjugation but that the Lamb of God has effectively “taken away” the sin of the single individual whose name is “written in heaven.”

    Series C, Third Sunday after Pentecost

    Foxes and birds naturally have natural habitats. Jesus had no home because any earthly place would be too inadequate and impermanent to be called “home” for beings on the path of life leading to delights that are forever.

  5. ١٨‏/٠٦‏/٢٠٢٥

    Series C, Second Sunday after Pentecost

    We want a salvation that tweaks, not one that transforms. Conversion begins with restoration of the self, which sin always intends to destroy.

  6. ١١‏/٠٦‏/٢٠٢٥

    Series C, The Holy Trinity

    Time and death are transformed because the Holy Trinity is love. If God was one person, love would be self-love. But God is Triune, which means that true love has always been about love for the other and so essentially sacrificial.

  7. ٠٤‏/٠٦‏/٢٠٢٥

    Series C, The Day of Pentecost

    Pentecost fulfils and completes the promise of Shavuot by moving the external law into the depths of the heart. To be chosen is expressed in making what seems like hard choices unless they are the choices that God makes for his beloved.

  8. ٢٨‏/٠٥‏/٢٠٢٥

    Series C, The Ascension of Our Lord

    Christ’s ascension completes the teleological path of descent/incarnation/death/resurrection which opened the way of our ascent.
