SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20
The Humility of the Cross
The readings for the 29th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B highlight the theme of discipleship and the cost it entails. The first reading prophesies Jesus’ sacrificial mission for humanity, while the second reading assures us that Jesus understands our weaknesses. In the gospel, Jesus teaches his disciples about the importance of humility and servanthood in following him. These readings invite reflection on themes of humility, sacrifice, mercy, authority, and leadership in the context of discipleship. |
