“[T]he challenge for us is not to reject the world nor to reject ourselves. The challenge is to learn to sacrifice. To sacrifice we offer something to God, and in the Jewish law it is the whole thing that was offered. It was called a holocaust. Nothing was kept back. Everything was given to God. That is what our meditation does to our life.” From John Main OSB, “The Accuracy of Sacrifice,” MOMENT OF CHRIST (New York: Continuum, 1998). -- Feel free to join us Monday evening.
