Homily on the Wednesday of Holy Week.
Judas betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. The betrayal and persecution of the early Christian church continued, and Christians had to vouch for the sincerity of others wanting to grow in their faith in the community. Today, we can betray others by focusing on a small thing and making it the whole thing in a partisan way. This hyperfocus can lead to disunity and justifying treacherous behavior towards others. Just as Jesus offered Peter reconciliation, we can reconcile with each other by accepting Jesus’ invitation to “Follow me.”
Gospel Matthew 26:14-25
