21 November 2020 | Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary | Eugene, Ore.
As we celebrate this beautiful feast, we reflect on the meaning of Mary—the new and living temple not made by human hands, Ark of the New Covenant and true “abode of heaven!”—entering into the old Temple of Jerusalem as a little girl. What does this mystery mean for you and me? Also, it’s evaluation season once again, and I share some take-aways from my pastoral year committee’s evaluation of me this week! And let’s not forget this week’s play, “Timon of Athens,” the little-known Shakespearean tragedy said to be Karl Marx’s favorite. But is it a tragedy after all?
