He says he feels “duped” or Tuesday September 1, 2020 “tricked” by God. In fulfilling his mission, he faced 1 Cor 2:10b-16; Ps 145:8-9, 10-11, 12-13ab, 13cd- many persecutors, and yet the urge to preach was irre- 14; Lk 4:31-37 sistible, so he has carried on. 9:00AM Kevin Clark (Lauren and Stephan Inker) Reading II: Romans 12: 1-2 Wednesday September 2, 2020 Christian life is supposed to be a sacrifice offered to 1 Cor 3:1-9; Ps 33:12-13, 14-15, 20-21; Lk 4:38-44 God.

How? By remonstrating Jesus when Friday September 4, 2020 He says His mission involves the cross. Jesus goes on 1 Cor 4:1-5; Ps 37:3-4, 5-6, 27-28, 39-40; Lk 5:33-39 to describe Peter’s discipleship, and ours, as a matter 9:00AM Frank Fazzalore of taking up our own cross, whatever that might be.
