Christ Brings Division

Fr Michael Rasicci’s homily for the 10th Sunday after Pentecost, 08/14/2022, Calvary Episcopal Church, Batavia, IL

Jesus tells His disciples that he came to bring fire to the earth, to create division in families. People choose to follow Jesus and His path home to God, letting go of other ways of living. In His time, Jesus’s teachings went against the beliefs and customs of the people around him. Even today, following Jesus means letting go of other priorities dear to some of the people around us.

Readings: Isaiah 5: 1-7; Psalm 80: 1-2, 10-18; Hebrews 11: 29 – 12: 2; Luke 12: 49-56)
