9/23/18: 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time: Jesus Reverses the Values of the World (Ours)

Today we hear Jesus saying this: "If you wish to be first, you must become the last and the servant of all." Our temptation is to try to be the "first": To be important. Influential. Wealthy. Having it "all together". Jesus makes it clear that he is not interested in the most important in society, the movers and shakers, but rather in the most insignificant, like a child. The least is whom he chooses to identify with. Will we align our values to his or continue to hang on to the values of the world?
