John Chandler continues in the Ordinary Weeks of the Lectionary and walks through the passages for this Sunday. [Jeremiah 11:18-20; Psalm 54; Mark 9:30-37; James 3:13-4:3, 4:7-8a]

Reflection:
In what ways do we demand for God to be on our side instead of realizing that God is on God’s side?
How can we be less concerned with our rights and more concerned with God’s calling?
