0:24
amen a reading from the second letter of
0:27
of our Lord Jesus Christ to shun my
0:30
brother who walks in a dis disorderly
0:34
way and for we did not act in a
0:37
disorderly way among you nor did we eat
0:41
food received free from
0:43
anyone on the contrary in toil and
0:47
drudgery night and day we worked so as
0:50
not to burden any of you now that we do
0:55
not have the right not that we do not
0:57
have the right rather we want to present
1:00
ourselves as a model we instructed you
1:03
that if anyone was unwilling to work
1:06
neither should that one
1:08
eat may the Lord of Peace himself give
1:11
you peace this greeting is in my own
1:14
hand Paul's this is the sign in every
1:17
letter this is how I write blessed are
1:21
those who fear the Lord blessed are
1:24
those who fear the Lord blessed are you
1:27
who fear the lord who blessed are those
1:31
who fear the lord behold thus is the man
1:35
blessed who fears the Lord the Lord
1:38
bless you from Zion may you see the
1:40
prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of
1:44
your life blessed are those who fear the
1:51
lord a reading scribes and Pharisees
1:54
inside are full of dead men's but on
1:57
inside you are filled with hypocrisy and
2:00
evildoing woe to you scribes and
2:03
Pharisees you Hypocrites you build the
2:06
ancestors we would not children of those
2:08
who murdered
2:11
the well St Augustine had a lot going
2:14
for him he was goodlooking he was
2:17
wealthy he was politically connected he
2:19
was extreme around he was in a big city
2:23
which was helpful and in addition to all
2:25
that he was in a position in terms of
2:28
the history of the church to say that
2:31
was hours and hours and hours of notes
2:33
about passion in youth he held on to
2:36
that passion for a long long time now
2:39
that served him really poorly in some
2:41
ways he had got himself into all sorts
2:43
of trouble he had issues with too much
2:45
drinking when he had his conversion he
2:47
still made a series of mistakes um and
2:51
and made some political snafus as well
2:54
along the way as the bishop of Hippo but
2:57
that passion and even as he made
2:59
mistakes even as he made errors he was
3:03
just absolutely impassioned with this
3:06
genuine sense of I want to know the
3:08
truth I want to know the the reality of
3:10
what it means to be a human being the
3:12
reality of what it means to be in this
3:14
universe and the reality of who created
3:16
it our younger Generations as generation
3:19
me me they just don't care and in fact
3:22
this is one of one of those things that
3:24
the great spiritual Masters have talked
3:25
about forever that the is not is is slow
3:29
basically it's apathy it's not caring
3:31
it's not you know some some opposite
3:34
that's also passionate passion is
3:36
something that drives us it's something
3:37
that can lead us astray and in fact we
3:40
know and we we can see that that's
3:42
something that's happened all through
3:44
history we look at people who are deeply
3:46
impassion Holan or the Marquee dad and
3:48
we could say not good drove that passion
3:50
off a cliff we could also look at
3:52
incredibly passionate people like Teresa
3:55
Aila olola you know who went on to found
3:57
the Jesuit talk forever and ever about
3:59
the necessity of passion but that's
4:01
really what gave and failing right it's
4:04
one thing to say any neew won't get off
4:07
the couch and all he does is play video
4:08
these things that is all important in
4:11
what it means of Jesus uses that word
4:13
very very deliberately and so in many
4:15
ways St Augustine is the one that I look
4:17
to when I'm feeling apathetic when I'm
4:20
feeling like my energy and my passion
4:21
and my IDE we wanted to know the truth
4:24
passion has led them make some and of
