Listen "Whoever Exalts Himself will be Humbled"
Episode Synopsis
Whoever exalts himself will be humbled: Within the setting of one of Luke's favourite scenes, a meal-table, Jesus turns the value-system and the way of judging one another on its head. We expect honours and privileges to be given to the significant people in out society. As Jesus has shown in his loving self-gift for us, this is not the way things work in the kingdom of God. Seeking the lower places will lead to our advancement, and sharing with those who are most in need leads to the greatest of all honours: victory in our eventual experience of death and resurrection. Presented by world-renowned biblical scholar Rev. Professor Francis J. Moloney SDB AM, Audio Divina, is a Lectio-Divina styled reflection on the gospel for the Twenty-Second Sunday of the Year, Year C. Gospel Reading: Luke 14:7-14 This week's readers are Jennifer and Joseph Narrated and Produced by Br Jeff Miller SDB For more information visit: www.salesians.org.au/info/audiodivina
