Fourteenth Week in Ordinary Time
Matthew 9:32-38
*Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus directs his disciples to "ask the master
of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest," to pray for
evangelists to rescue the lost. But what precisely does it mean to
evangelize?Euangelion (glad tidings) was a familiar word in the culture of
the New Testament authors. When the emperor or one of his generals won a
battle, he would send evangelists ahead to announce the glad tidings. The
first Christians were being edgy when they adapted the word to their
purposes. They were saying that the definitive battle had indeed been won,
but that it had nothing to do with Caesar and his armies. It had to do with
the victory that God had won in Christ over sin and death. Jesus went into
the belly of the beast—into the heart of our dysfunction, to the limits of
godforsakenness—and he defeated the dark powers. He demonstrated that the
divine love is greater than our greatest enemies. This evangelical message
entails, too, that there is a new King, a new Emperor. Christ, the victor
over sin and death, must be the center of your life.*
