July 5, 2015 Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

         The Gospel passage describes Jesus being rejected by some in his hometown. Jesus goes to the local synagogue and teaches. They appear to be impressed by his knowledge and wisdom, but they question his authority. They don’t seem to be able to take the step of faith. In their opinion he is just one of the ordinary people, and everyone knows him.

         Jesus was amazed at their lack of faith. This won’t be the last time that Jesus will be rejected. Some will accept him and others will turn away. Through faith, we pray that we may accept Jesus is truly the presence of God among us.
