The Ascension of the Lord: But at the end of the Gospel of Luke, the disciples are full of joy. They have repented and their sins have been forgiven. Jesus gives them final instructions. They are to wait in the city of Jerusalem for the gift of the Spirit. They can now be witnesses to the ends of the earth to what they have experienced - repentance and forgiveness of sin. Jesus departs, and the mission of the witnessing Church begins.

6th Sunday of Easter: As Jesus moves further into his Last Discourse with his disciples before his passion, death, and resurrection, he tells them that he must depart from them. But he will come back to them, and dwell with them. There will, however, be a time of absence. In that in-between time, the disciples are instructed on the need to live by the word of Jesus, and promised that they will be supported and guided by the Spirit-Paraclete.

5th Sunday of Easter: As Judas departs, Jesus cries out in triumph. His moment of glory, his loving self-gift on the cross is at hand. But he will soon be leaving his disciples. They must now face a time when he is no longer with them as he was during his ministry. They must continue his presence by following the new commandment: loving as he has loved.

Listening to the voice of the Good Shepherd: Within the context of the Jewish celebration of the Feast of the Dedication, marking the return of the Jerusalem Temple to its proper place as a way to God, Jesus presents himself, his word, and his way of life as an authoritative way to God. He has such authority as there no longer need to go to a Temple to find Good; the Father and Jesus are one!

Do you love me? Feed my sheep! The Gospel of John closes by drawing the two foundational disciples back into the action. Having given up on Jesus, Peter decides he is going fishing. However, recognised by the Beloved Disciple as "the Lord," Jesus enables a miraculous catch of many fish, a symbol of the universal Church. At the subsequent meal, Peter overcomes his three-fold denial of Jesus by his three-fold profession of love. His eventual death will glorify God, just as Jesus' death glorified God.

Holy Saturday: The attention in the account of Easter Sunday morning in Luke's Gospel is given to the fact that an encounter with the risen Jesus will not take place in a graveyard. He has been raised. Look for him elsewhere. The women, and all the disciples are asked to "remember the words" that Jesus had spoken to them about his resurrection from the dead during his ministry. As often in the Gospel of Luke, the faith of the women exceeds that of the men. The women "remember" Jesus' words and believe, but the men do not. Peter is "amazed."

Father, forgive them! … "This man was innocent": Each of the four Gospels tells the story of the Passion of Jesus. But they each tell it in their own way, in an attempt to explain what Jesus' death means for us. Luke's story is highlighted by Jesus' compassion, forgiveness, the missioning of the Church, and above all, the message that Jesus is innocent, someone who does not save himself, but gives his life for others.

God's Mercy and human frailty meet: Continuing the theme of compassion, today's account of the woman caught in adultery provides a wonderful portrait of Jesus. For Jesus' opponents, the woman does not matter. She is just a "thing" they can use to try to test Jesus' loyalty to the Law. Jesus cuts through this, drives away the hypocrites, and deals with the woman as a person deserving compassion. In sending her on her way, he asks that she sin no more.

A Father who has two Sons: One of the great literary and theological treasures of Christianity, Jesus' parable about the Father with two sons is not so much about the sons, each one of whom is "lost," but about an amazing Father. As we follow his loving compassion for both his sons, we come to the end of the Parable with the Father - for Jesus, the figure of God, his Father - out in the dark, trying to save his second lost Son. That is where God will be found.

A God who gives us time: Two themes emerge from today's Gospel. In the first place, responding to the tragedies of the Galileans and the people in Jerusalem, Jesus points out that we are all sinners, and we all have need for repentance. It is not as if bad things only happen to the bad. But then he turns to a parable. The unexpected will happen: the unproductive vine that should be destroyed will be given more time when our repentance is slow. Only if unfruitfulness continues will the plant be cut down.

The Passing Over that Lies Ahead: The account of Jesus' transfiguration before Peter, John, and James is used this week because it instructs disciples on two crucial elements of the Christian faith. On the one hand, Jesus is seen and announced as Son of God. But in Jesus discusses with Elijah and Moses his future "passing over" in Jerusalem. Followers of Jesus must recognise both who Jesus is, and what it means to follow him in his journey back to the Father through his death, resurrection, and ascension. But disciples do not understand. They want to glory in the moment.

The testing of God's Son: Luke's Gospel has already announced that Jesus is the Son of God - three times. Immediately after providing Jesus' genealogy, showing that Jesus is the Son of God, Satan enters the story - to test whether that is true. Three times he asks Jesus to prove that he is the Son of God. Relying on the Word of God (from the Book of Deuteronomy) Jesus defeats Satan, and he departs. But he will return.

Practice what you preach: Called to live a radical questioning of the establishment compassionately, Jesus closes his Sermon on the Plain by asking that we be authentic, the we be what we are, genuine Christians who try to live and love as Jesus Christ.

Sermon 2. Be compassionate: The radical nature of Jesus' preaching in his blessings and woes continues. He next instructs us on how we are to live the radical nature of God's new order: be compassionate as God is compassionate. This may appear weak, but it is the strongest way of all - reflecting God's own never-failing compassion for all, despite our many failures.

Sermon 1: The new Order: Jesus' ministry began with the call of the disciples. He next establishes his Twelve Apostles, his future missionaries, comes down onto a plain with them, and preaches to all who come to him, including the Gentiles. Jesus' blessings and woes establish a new order in which those least favoured are seen as closest to God, and challenges all Christians never to submit to the absolutes of a society built on power and possessions.
