The CatholicMom.com team assigned me a Gospel reading to write a reflection about.

And it wasn’t one of those easy readings.

My reflection begins with If this Gospel about unexpected visits and severe beatings doesn’t grab your attention, I don’t know what will.

They gave me a little more room on their site than I have with my daily reflections on Twitter that I share on @todaysreadings. Thankfully, given it was a challenging reading. Read the rest of my guest post reflection over at CatholicMom.com.

The reflection is based on the readings for the Memorial of Saints John de Brébeuf and Isaac Jogues, Priests, and Companions, Martyrs (Lectionary: 475, Cycle II, Year C Luke 12, 39-48 via USCCB).
