In this week’s Encountering the Word video, Jeff Cavins discusses how to cut out the things we do, the places we go, and the things we watch that cause us to sin, as he reflects on the Gospel reading for the Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time. The readings are:
First Reading – Wisdom 2:12, 17-20
Responsorial Psalm – 54:3-4, 5, 6 and 8
Second Reading – James 3:16—4:3
Alleluia – Cf. 2 Thes 2:14
Gospel – Mark 9:30-37
