XIV Week After PentecostSeptember 18, 2025---📖 Today’s readings remind us of leadership, integrity, and the central call to love. In 2 Samuel 19, David is urged to rise from grief and return to his place of leadership, showing the tension between personal pain and public responsibility. In Acts 24, Paul stands trial before Felix with honesty and boldness, proving that the truth of the gospel cannot be silenced. And in Mark 12, Jesus once again brings it all back to the foundation: loving God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and loving our neighbor as ourselves.✨ Whether leading through grief, standing firm under pressure, or learning to love well, God calls us to live with courage and faithfulness rooted in Him.
