Twenty-third Week in Ordinary Time

Luke 6:12-19






*Friends, after Jesus names his twelve Apostles in today’s Gospel, he heals
a multitude of people. And that multitude represents us, for we all stand
in need of the Savior’s healing touch.We are made for love and connection
and justice and nonviolence, but at every turn and in every way we are
twisted in the direction of hatred, separation, injustice, and violence. We
are, as St. Augustine put it, wandering in the land of dissimilitude and in
the grip of the libido dominandi. The contemporary philosopher René Girard
has reminded us that all of our social arrangements are marked by
scapegoating and oppression. The human race is best characterized as a
dysfunctional spiritual family, all of us having been marked from birth by
the effects of sin. Sin has found its way into every aspect of human life,
personally and institutionally. We would be hopelessly naïve to think
otherwise. And so we need, not just a philosopher or social theorist or
political activist or military hero, but a Savior, someone who can break
into our dysfunction from the outside and heal us.*
