Twenty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Today, we invite you to explore the mystery of forgiveness with the help of philosopher Hannah Arendt; engage the centrality of mercy in Catholic Social Teaching and its relation to justice and forgiveness; and embody the meaning of forgiveness with a meditation, The Forgiveness Project, and the music of Leonard Cohen.
The Just Word This Week
Inclusive. Life-giving. Liberating.
FutureChurch’s newest project, The Just Word, pairs inclusive language lectionary readings with life-giving and liberating commentaries written justice-seeking, young adult Catholic scholars, activists, and ministers.
The Just Word is a resource for all Catholics, inviting us to:
- explore the readings in greater depth through the lens of ground-breaking theological thought
- engage with the world around us in light of principles and documents of Catholic Social Thought
- embody a faith that does justice with the help of contemplative practices, art, videos, and music as well as the inspiration of individuals and communities who bear witness to our faith.
