I’m To Do What!?
Sunday’s (Oct, 5) gospel text is from Luke 17:1-10. Vss. 1-3 Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come. It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble. So watch yourselves. “If your brother or sister sins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them.

The Heavens Declare
