After a brief break, Working the Lectionary is back! In this episode, your hosts John Bottomley and Brendan Byrne will be exploring Pentecost 2 and 3 through readings drawn from The Gospel According to Matthew. For Pentecost 2, we'll examine how Jesus' calling to Matthew was also a calling into healing, which in turn calls the Church into a ministry of healing for the wounds inflicted by the world of work. Pentecost 3 finds us exploring Jesus' injunction to the disciples to give without payment what they have received without payment, and what this says about the Church's status as a beneficiary of colonialism and its failure to speak prophetically into the "helpless and harassed" realities of work.
