1
I am blessed to have as my brothers in the Franciscan community several friars who are canon lawyers.
2
One aspect of the Church's canon law deals with penalties,
3
which might be incurred or imposed for very serious actions which break the unity of the Church.
4
One of these has been in the news lately, excommunication.
5
While popular opinion might see excommunication as the church condemning someone to hell, that is not the case.
6
The church never rejects any of its members.
7
Rather, it acts as a loving parent might in the face of a child who slams the door and leaves the house.
8
In the face of someone's serious violation of a church law,
9
the church names it through the penalty but then remains open to that person's return always.
10
The Church, in imitation of the father of the prodigal son, waits to embrace the prodigal's return with sincere affection.
11
In today's Gospel, Jesus spells out a process to address the situation where one community member hurts another.
12
Our Lord asks His followers first to keep the problem private with a one-to-one conversation between the one injured
13
and the one who inflicts the injury.
14
Only if that fails is the disciples to involve others as witnesses.
15
A third step after failure is to tell the church, that is, bring the issue before the whole community.
16
If nothing persuades the sinful disciple to listen, quote, then treat him as you would a Gentile or a tax collector.
17
Scripture scholar Father Ron Witherup writes that this extreme treatment, quote, may at first seem like making them outcasts,
18
but we should remember that Jesus called such outcasts to be members of his inner circle and his wider community.
19
These now public Christian sinners would become the focus of reconciliation, following Jesus' example in reaching out to tax collectors and sinners.
20
And so, in the church today, our Holy Father and our bishops
21
and pastors are called to foster unity with prayer for the return of those who have broken that bond of love.
22
When we act as Jesus has taught, we are ensured of the Father's generosity and the presence of Jesus in our midst as we gather.

Über diese Lektion

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
