TWENTY-SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Be transformed by the renewal of your mind,
that you may discern what is the will of God,
what is good and pleasing and perfect.
— Romans 12:2
THE CROSS OF JESUS
The perception of a cross changed
dramatically after Jesus’ crucifix-
ion. Before that event, death on a
cross was not only horrible, it was
degrading. It was a penalty re-
served only for the most wretched
of criminals. The word “glory”
would not have found its way into
the same sentence containing the word “cross.” But all that
changed with Jesus. Over time, believers began to venerate
and honor the cross. They painted, sculpted, and carved im-
ages of it. Many lost their own lives for their association with
it. Today our reverence for and relationship with the cross
recalls liHle of the contempt originally associated with it. As
it has been through the ages, it is our perception of the cross
that determines how we follow Jesus.
