Bickering

Note:  This is our 3,300th slice of bread ... out of the "oven" on 9/30/19!

The "climate change" from polite disagreement to twitter-based bickering is upon us with a vengeance. But such bickering is not new.  Even this morning's gospel passage begins with he disciples arguing among each other about who was the greatest, or complaining about someone casting out demons in the name of Jesus who was not part of their group. (Lk 9:46-50).  Jesus reminded them that humility is key to smooth relations with others, that the least among them is really the greatest. We might put ourselves in this scene to learn that bickering gets us nowhere, but being humble and as receptive as a child are what bring about harmony.
