Revised Common Lectionary Readings for Sunday, September 15, 2024, the Twenty-Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year B)
• Psalm 19:1-14
• Second Reading James 3:1-12
• Gospel Mark 8:27-33
Title: Fiery Words
Teaser: In Psalms 19, the precepts of the Lord are more to be desired than gold, much fine gold, sweeter than honey and drippings of the honeycomb. The amazing words show us how the Israelites revered the very words of the Lord in poetry. What is spoken changes us more than we change the word. More powerful than anything, the tongue is the tiny rudder that steers great ships, starts wars and destroys, builds up and gives life, and proclaims the coming of the messiah.
