About the author of the Second Reading in today's Office of Readings:
Mid-morning reading (Terce) | Romans 1:16-17 © |
---|---|
I am not ashamed of the Good News: it is the power of God saving all who have faith – Jews first, but Greeks as well – since this is what reveals the justice of God to us: it shows how faith leads to faith, or as scripture says: The upright man finds life through faith.
|
Noon reading (Sext) | 1 Thessalonians 2:2-4 © |
---|---|
It was our God who gave us the courage to proclaim his Good News to you in the face of great opposition. We have not taken to preaching because we are deluded, or immoral, or trying to deceive anyone; it was God who decided that we were fit to be entrusted with the Good News, and when we are speaking, we are not trying to please men but God.

Afternoon reading (None) | 2 Timothy 1:8-9 © |
---|---|
Bear hardships with me for the sake of the Good News, relying on the power of God who has saved us and called us to be holy – not because of anything we ourselves have done but for his own purpose and by his own grace, which has been granted to us in Christ Jesus.
