Trust in God, Not in Mammon Vol. 4 00191 www.ologwarren.org Our Lady of Grace Parish - Giáo Xứ Đức Mẹ Ban Ơn Lành Trust in God, Not in Mammon The parable long known as “The Unjust Steward” may be the most The Year of Grace puzzling of all the stories of Jesus. Since it appears to present an im- moral person as a model. But there is a way of reading it that makes September 22, 2019 powerful sense. It is undeniable that the steward is called unrighteous 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year C and that he is also held up as some kind of an example. However, just Chúa Nhật XXV Thường Niên, Nam C how is he unrighteous and exactly what aspect of his character is pre- sented for imitation? Let’s take a closer look. 26256 Ryan Road Warren, MI 48091 The steward of a wealthy landowner is told to turn in his books when Phone: 586-755-1313 he has been discovered as having squandered his master’s property. Fax: 586-690-4441 No details are given regarding the nature of the mismanagement. Re- Sick Call: 586-755-5490 markably, the steward is not jailed, just “let go.” Until he hands over Email: [email protected] the books, he still has authority over the land renters. He seizes this St. Paul Evangelization Institute opportunity of his master’s lenient dismissal (no debtor’s jail) to gain Steve Dawson, President favor with those renters. He moves quickly to “sweeten” their annual 657-777-2963 rent contracts (paid in kind according to their crop—i.e., in jars of ol- ive oil or bushels of wheat). For example, he tells the farmer who cul- Parish Staff/Ban Điều Hành GX. tivates olive trees that the rent this year will be cut by 50 percent. And Rev. Hoằng Lâm/Pastor-Lm. Chánh xứ a wheat grower will have to pay only 80 percent. They are instructed Dcn. (Phó Tế), Kevin Tietz/DRE to alter the rates in their own hand because that is the usual way of Trưởng Giáo Lý formally acknowledging rental agreements. Ron Frankland/Office Manager-Thư Ký Regina Ciavattone, Vicariate Rep. Ken Kronner, Parish Council President They do not know the steward is being dismissed; they would pre- sume that he has talked the master into these more favorable rates and Office Hours/Giờ Văn Phòng would be only too happy to accede to the new contract, no questions Mon thru Thur: 9AM-12Noon — 1PM-4PM Masses/Thánh Lễ asked.

Holy Day: To be announced/Sẽ thông báo.

Vol. 4 00191 www.ologwarren.org Our Lady of Grace Parish - Giáo Xứ Đức Mẹ Ban Ơn Lành 2 Fm. Pg. 1 Obviously, to imitate the steward literally, i.e., by acting deceptively, would simply be to act as a child of this world. Something else is required of the children of light. Jesus urges the latter, those trying to live the way of the kingdom, to “make friends for yourselves with dishonest wealth, “so that, when it fails, you may be welcomed into eternal dwellings” (Lk 16:9). Clearly this draws a parallel with the parable: Jesus urges us to use wealth in such a way as to gain favor with the One who is both the ultimate client and the ultimate landowner—God. Jesus spotlights the opportunistic shrewdness of the steward. The application for the “children of light” is that they too are to be clever opportunists, by using wealth in the ways that Jesus elsewhere advocates the use of resources—feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, lending but ask- ing nothing in return.

  • Kahlil Gibran a Tear and a Smile (1950)
    “perplexity is the beginning of knowledge…” Kahlil Gibran A Tear and A Smile (1950) STYLIN’! SAMBA JOY VERSUS STRUCTURAL PRECISION THE SOCCER CASE STUDIES OF BRAZIL AND GERMANY Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Susan P. Milby, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Melvin Adelman, Adviser Professor William J. Morgan Professor Sarah Fields _______________________________ Adviser College of Education Graduate Program Copyright by Susan P. Milby 2006 ABSTRACT Soccer playing style has not been addressed in detail in the academic literature, as playing style has often been dismissed as the aesthetic element of the game. Brief mention of playing style is considered when discussing national identity and gender. Through a literature research methodology and detailed study of game situations, this dissertation addresses a definitive definition of playing style and details the cultural elements that influence it. A case study analysis of German and Brazilian soccer exemplifies how cultural elements shape, influence, and intersect with playing style. Eight signature elements of playing style are determined: tactics, technique, body image, concept of soccer, values, tradition, ecological and a miscellaneous category. Each of these elements is then extrapolated for Germany and Brazil, setting up a comparative binary. Literature analysis further reinforces this contrasting comparison. Both history of the country and the sport history of the country are necessary determinants when considering style, as style must be historically situated when being discussed in order to avoid stereotypification. Historic time lines of significant German and Brazilian style changes are determined and interpretated.

  • The Language of Hell
    <http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bsz:21-opus-49631> | <https://doi.org/10.25623/conn001.3-merrill-1> Connotations Vot 1.3 (1991) The Language of Hell THOMAS F. MERRlLL When he was asked during a lecture, ''What would you think is the best Protestant religious picture?" Paul Tillich unhesitatingly replied, "Guernica." But where, in this picture, are the gods, the angels, the Christ figures, the madonnas, the martyred saints, the crosses, the stars of David? In fact, there are none. "Guernica" is not a religious painting, but, as Tillich insists, the work exposes the "disruptiveness, existential doubt, emptiness and meaninglessness" of modern existence, and thus "it does have religious style in a very deep and profound sense."l As in painting so in literature too. Picasso's images would not seem at all out of place in Milton's Hell. Here too we find surrealistic distortion, ontological stress, disruptiveness, emptiness, meaninglessness within a cell-like confinement. Granted, Hell's inhabitants are fallen angels, not mortals, but who would argue that despite their unpardonable apostasy, Milton painted their anguish in deliberately mortal terms? Like "Guernica," Hell is devoid of overtly religious trappings, but again like "Guernica," I would argue, it possesses a style more evocative than any of the overtly sacred scenes in Milton's Heaven, which, despite their proliferation of holy objects and symbols, remain for most readers religiously sterile. For a long time the question of religious literary style has been hostage to Theology.2

In the Junior Secondary Social Studies Curriculum in Canada, civics is integrated with all other components of social studies. The civics themes identified in this book are not explicitly stated in the social studies curriculum, but rather, a reading of the curriculum makes it clear that the social studies teacher in the junior secondary/middle school is expected to address aspects of political science as well as of history, geography, and economics. After an introduction, "How to Use This Resource Book", the book is divided into the following "strands"; (7) "The Circumpolar World"; (8) "The Changing World"; and (9)"The Growth of Canada." Each of the three strands forming the core of the junior secondary civics curriculum is comprised of three themes inferred from the political science content of the curriculum.
