One might have expected a statement of disappointment or regret. Instead, Jesus speaks to his disciples of love.

As the first disciples trusted in the Advocate, they found a love that gave peace to their hearts.

The Twelve were servants of Jesus’ mission. Now, after the resurrection, they have become Jesus’ friends.

This Sunday’s Gospel calls us to create that quiet place in the midst of the world’s distractions,

We are like the angel messengers at the tomb: to interpret the signs of Christ’s presence and activity.

Vengeance, retribution and pitiless justice only amplify the power of sin.

Do you treat God’s law as a tool for conversion or for retribution?

How can you emulate Jesus’ unwavering obedience to God?

Good things happen to bad people because God hopes for their transformation.

In this parable, Luke presents a complex study of the interplay of freedom, duty and love.
