29th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Cylce B, 18 Oct 2009

Click here to download and listen to this homily (22 minutes) given by Fr Thomas Weise. James and John want seats of glory in the Kingdom Jesus came to establish. They will receive them, but these seats of glory will involve hard work, suffering, and death; not privilege and power over others. Jesus came to serve and we all need to do the same. What a different world we would have if we started each day and every conversation with, "Hello my name is ______, and I will be your server today. What can I do for you."

Readings: Isaiah 53:10-11; Psalm 33; Hebrews 4:14-16; Mark 10:35-45.
