Year A, the Fourth Sunday of Epiphany

Join Fr. Aaron & Marissa Burt for this week's episode, in which they consider the readings for the fourth Sunday of Epiphany: Micah 6:1-8; Psalm 37:1-11; 1 Corinthians 1:18-31; Matthew 5:1-12.

They discuss Micah's displacement of religiosity with justice, mercy & humility, the Psalmist's cultivation of faithfulness in the face of wickedness, Paul's explanation of the foolishness of the cross, and Jesus' teaching on the Beatitudes.
