01/24/16 Everybody’s Working: Called to Work

Homily from the Third Sunday in Ordinary Time.

If work is about me, then it will always involve fruitless and pointless toil. But if work is about responding to a call outside or myself…if it is about responding to a need outside of myself…then work is free to simply “be work”. And we can cease to look to work for validation, identity, and meaning.
