Do You Begrudge My Generosity? (Matthew 20:1-16) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Matthew 20:1-16 is framed by Jesus’ warning that “the first will be last, and the last first.” Peter has asked what the disciples will receive after leaving everything to follow Jesus. Jesus affirms that faithfulness matters, but the parable warns against turning sacrifice or longevity into a claim on God. The master repeatedly goes into the marketplace, calls workers, and sends them into his vineyard. At day’s end he pays the eleventh-hour workers a full denarius, and the first workers grumble
As I Had Mercy On You (Matthew 18:21-35) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Peter asks Jesus how often he must forgive the brother who sins against him. Seven times sounds generous, but Peter is still counting. Jesus answers with a number that makes counting useless and tells of a servant owing an impossible debt. He asks for patience, but the king gives something greater: he cancels the debt. Christian forgiveness begins there. Before we are commanded to forgive, we are sinners who have received mercy. Psalm 103 says that God removes our transgressions as far as east i
The Confession of the Church (Matthew 16:13-20) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Confession of the Church: Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost, Proper 16, Year A. Matthew 16:13–20. Two Sundays ago the disciples worshiped Jesus in the boat and said, “Truly you are the Son of God.” So what is different at Caesarea Philippi? Peter adds the messianic title Christ. There is no new miracle in this scene to prompt it. And Jesus immediately names the source of the confession: flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. Evidence matters, but eviden
Lord, Save Me (Matthew 14:22-33) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"Lord, Save Me". Eleventh Sunday after Pentecost, second Sunday of Movement III: the King acts and is recognized. Matthew 14:22–33. Last week’s question was answered at three in the morning, in a storm, by men in a battered boat: Truly you are the Son of God. The storm is not the absence of Christ; it is often the occasion of his coming. After feeding five thousand, Jesus sends the disciples across the Sea of Galilee and withdraws to the mountain to pray. They row through the night against the w
He Had Compassion (Matthew 14:13-21) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"He Had Compassion". Tenth Sunday after Pentecost, first Sunday of Movement III. Matthew 14:13–21. The miracle begins in grief, not abundance. Jesus has just learned of John the Baptist’s execution and withdraws by boat to grieve. The crowd follows on foot and is waiting when he lands. He steps off the boat and has compassion: splanchnizomai (splank-NIDZ-oh-my), gut-level visceral compassion that acts before calculation. He heals the sick. As evening comes the disciples suggest sending the crowd
