8th Sunday after Pentecost - Faith over Comfort
Manage episode 428773635 series 2569745
This week in our Gospel reading, Mark 6:14-29 we hear how King Herod originally protected John the Baptist even though his wife was angry that he called their marriage unlawful, because he believed him to be a righteous and holy man.
But after making an oath to his wife's daughter, he had John executed to protect his own reputation in front of his dinner guests.
Even today in our own lives, there are times when defending the righteous may make people dislike us.
How does your faith comfort you when you're in these situations?
