Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year C

An unsettling truth

Reading I: Jeremiah 38:4–6, 8–10 (Jeremiah in the miry cistern)
Reading II: Hebrews 12:1–4 (God’s treatment of his sons and daughters)
Gospel: Luke 12:49–53 (Jesus’ mission of division)

Key Passage: Jesus said, “Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division!” (Luke 12:51)

Adult: When has your taking a strong stand on a moral issue created division rather than healing in the short term?
Child: Is it important to do the right thing even if others are angry as a result? Why or why not?
