Betty Geier 80th Birthday

Church Support August 18 - 19

Fr. Kevin’s Reflection Allow me to pick up from where I le& off last week. On the subject: … how are we to worship God the way He wishes to wor-

ship Him? Again, this theme is focus of this week’s readings and gospel as well. Joshua (in the first reading) reminds the People of God

(as he reminds us of the 21st

Century): are you going to worship God your way … the imperfect (and even demonic) way; or, are you go-

ing to worship Him the way He wants to be worshiped? Don’t feel too up6ght about what God is asking from us. Even those who were

following Jesus admit: "This saying is hard; who can accept it?" But … Peter has to admit (though he doesn’t get everything Jesus is talk-

ing about) in a kind of blind faith: "Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe (and are

convinced) that you are the Holy One of God."

Allow me to pick up from where I le& off last week (regarding the rela6onship and worship we give in our liturgical worship:

I wrote about this some weeks back … and need to try to summarize it again:

1. We must regard St. Paul’s concept of: worship and sacrifice with spirit and mind (in theology class: logikē latreia), of divine

worship in accordance with the Word of God (Logos), as the most appropriate way of expressing the essen6al form of Chris6an liturgy.

This concept is like the forks in a river coming together … the conjunc6on of several different streams: the spiritual movement of the Old

Testament, the process of inner purifica6on within the history of religion, human quest … and divine response. The note: the small “L”…

that’s the stuff coming from us) logos of crea6on, the logos in man, and the true and eternal Logos made flesh, the Son, come together.

All other defini6ons fall short. For example, you could describe the Eucharist, in terms of the liturgical phenomenon, as an “assembly”.

Or, you could describe It in terms of Jesus’ act of ins6tu6on at the Last Supper … as a “meal”. But this seizes on individual elements …

while failing to grasp the great historical and theological connec6ons. In contrast, the word “Eucharist” points to the universal form of

worship that took place in the Incarna6on, Cross and Resurrec6on of Christ … and so it can happily serve as a summary of the idea of

logikē latreia (worship and sacrifice with spirit and mind) and may legi6mately serve as an appropriate descrip6on for Chris6an worship.

2. Finally (… I know … I know: Where is all this stuff leading to Father Kevin? What are you trying to say?) All these insights

open up an essen6al dimension of Chris6an liturgy, which we must consider more concretely in the next few weeks. (I have given you

the theory in past reflec6ons … now to make them more understandable in the weeks to come.) As we have seen, Chris6an liturgy is a

liturgy of promise fulfilled … of a quest … the religious quest of human history, reaching its goal. But it remains a liturgy of hope. It also

bears within it … the mark of impermanence (a movement from here to There). The new Temple, not made by human hands, does exist

… but it is also s6ll under construc6on. The great gesture of embrace (Jesus reaching out to hug us) emana6ng from the Crucified Jesus

has not yet reached its goal … it has only just begun. (This is why we have the Crucifix being brought into Mass, hanging in the air above

us at Mass … even centered on the Altar … as a constant reminder.) Chris6an liturgy is liturgy on the way … a liturgy of pilgrimage to-

ward the transfigura6on of the world … which will only take place when God is: “all in all”.

pectedly. As someone who has been there, I encourage
