In this episode of Working The Lectionary, your hosts Brendan Byrne and John Bottomley discuss how a reading from Paul's Letter to the Romans contrasts the death and violence implicit in the creation narrative of capitalism contrasts to the life-giving grace located in faith in God as the moving force of creation; and how Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman reflects and critiques the demonization of those deemed to be losers under capitalism's violent competitive ethos.
