What's Up This Week
Jesus had a real penchant for upsetting the apple cart -- but just as is often the case today, the people he dealt with generally had a difficult time understanding the gist of his message… especially when he challenged them to break out of their tired, old ways of seeing things, as David McKirachan muses in this week's edition of StoryShare. McKirachan also shares a wry and interesting meditation on fashion sense, insecurity, and being "clothed in glory." John Sumwalt then offers us two very different approaches to this week's gospel text -- a charming children's story, and a cautionary tale about a once-dreaded disease that forces us to think about whether we will respond, like the disciple Peter, to Jesus' challenge about how deeply we love him.
