11/18/2020 Jesus the Model Public Servant
/
Homily for the thirty-third Wednesday of Ordinary Times.
Jesus tells his disciples a parable about an unjust king who reaps what he does not sow. In Luke’s gospel, Jesus immediately proceeds to the temple upon his arrival in Jerusalem and overturns the money changers’ tables. Jesus reminds everyone that the house was built to be a house of prayer, not a juggernaut of economic might that takes from people who have little and gives to people who have more. Jesus is the model public servant.
Gospel Luke 19:11-28
