Jesus' Ordination Sermon


Thursday, February 23  – Read Mark 1:14-15 and Luke 4:16-21

When John the Baptist is arrested Jesus begins his public ministry by proclaiming the good news that God’s kingdom is about to dawn. He goes to Nazareth, where he grew up, and quotes the prophet Isaiah making explicit what he will do as God’s messenger of the kingdom.

Reflection Question: Jesus says that he will proclaim good news and release the captives. How do you show others God’s kingdom of love in what you say and do?

Prayer: Dear God, use me to create your kingdom of love wherever I go. Amen.
