That’s My Boy!
Next week we are holding the Regional Basketball Tournament in our gym at Lumen Christi. If you have not been to a Lumen basketball game, they are lots and lots of
fun. One of the highlights was the father of senior starter Michael Sholl. Invariably, at various points
during the game, usually after Michael had done something of note, his father would belt out,
“THAT’S MY BOY!!!” And the crowd would go wild.
A father’s pride in his son is something special. As we see in the first reading, Abraham was most
certainly proud of his son, Isaac. So imagine his consternation when he heard the Lord say, “Take
your son Isaac, your only one, whom you love...and offer him as a holocaust.” How very devastating
that must have been. In ancient times, the only legacy you had was your children, especially your
male children. Isaac was his only son, his heir, his legacy. What could the Lord be thinking?
Nevertheless, Abraham is faithful and trusts that the Lord knows what he is doing, and it all
works out in the end. Isaac is spared and the Lord provides a suitable sacrifice.
Fast forward to Mt. Tabor where Jesus is transfigured in the presence of the disciples. Here they
get a “preview of coming attractions” as they get a glimpse of his future glory. Hopefully this will
sustain them in the coming weeks during his passion and death. But then something incredible happens. The voice of the very same Lord says, “This is my beloved son. Listen to him.” In essence,
the Lord is saying, “That’s my boy!”
What are we to make of all this? First, it is a very firm affirmation about the identity of Jesus as
the beloved Son of the Father. Second, as Paul notes very strongly, the very God who spared the son
of Abraham, did not spare his own beloved son. Thus, the passion and death of Jesus makes a difference not so much because of what he does, but because of WHO HE IS. Finally, it is a heady thing
to realize that when we are baptized into Christ, we too become the adopted sons and daughters of
the Father of Jesus. Indeed, “if God is for us, then who can be against?”
The Good News is that we are so loved by God, that he will go to any length, even suffer and die
on our behalf, so that we might be freed from anything that would come between us. What a marvelous thing, then, when we “glorify the Lord with our lives” so that when we stand before him at the
end of time he will point to us and say, “This is my beloved son! This my beloved daughter!”

EVANGELIZATION
Having a knowing and loving relationship with
Jesus from His Word - the Bible
“ . . . And the Word was God.” (John 1:1)
ROLE OF THE EUCHARIST
Eucharist – the Center of the Evangelized
Life.
The Church (General Instructions of the Roman Missal) requires two physical attitudes
for all the Faithful when they are in the Presence of Jesus: ADORATION AND HONOR.
The first attitude is that we are to ADORE Jesus – Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity - present in the tabernacle by genuflecting at your
pew when you enter the sacred space; repeat
a genuflection when you are leaving your pew
to exit the Church.
A genuflection is required when one approaches the Tabernacle and departs from the
Tabernacle. The same holds approaching the
altar after the Consecration when the Body and
Blood of Jesus is present until after the Communion rite is compete, e.g., for Eucharistic
Ministers, etc.
We should follow the example of our priests.
BIBLE STUDY
