Listen "From Abraham to Martha: Biblical Hospitality, 16th Sunday of Ordinary Time (C), July 20, 2025"
Episode Synopsis
On the one hand, the figure of Abraham as he joyfully receives and cares for his three guests at the Terebinth of Mamre and on the other, Jesus' dear friend, Martha, as she slaves in the kitchen while her sister, Mary does nothing, could not be further from one another. Yet they are bound together in today's Liturgy of the Word, and dealing with them both offers us a deeply personal challenge as we strive to serve the Lord and his people.
