The 16th Sunday of the Kingdom of Heaven is Now.

We dive deep into all three readings. Laura references the book " Abraham : the man and the symbol ; a Jungian interpretation of the biblical story."

What Laura forgot, "... the Sages also divided the functions of the angels’ mission into three: to herald the birth of Isaac, to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, and to heal Abraham. "One more quote from the book, “In the heat of the day” the sun is at its apogee. Midday heat, especially in the Middle East, can affect one’s wakefulness. Perhaps Abraham dozed off as he sat at the door of his tent, and entered a hypnagogic state. At the same time, his psychic receptiveness increased, as often happens when one is half awake and half asleep. In this state, a different consciousness may emerge—the greater, broader, and clearer consciousness of a great vision. Many cultures symbolize this consciousness of and receptiveness to the divinity by a depiction of the sun at its zenith, generating extreme heat."

We have a lengthy discussion of the story of Martha and Mary, “martyr syndrome” and wonder: could we all be Mary?

Marci offers some wonderful stories about of St. Francis including Francis' visit to the Sultan.
