Living the Prayer of Jesus through Racial Sobriety
Year B Gospel Commentary

19th Sunday in Ordinary Time
John 6:41-51
Again we have the abundance of the Gospel of John confounding closed
minds. Jesus in the Gospel of John is too much for people to understand.
He breaks the models of understanding that they have. Jesus?
relationship building is beyond their understanding of a distance from
God, and a fearful God at that. Jesus is talking a of a God that feeds
his people like a mother. Racial sobriety work is the work of realizing
the depth of our connectedness as a human family. Without this model of
life the message confounds people and troubles them. The allness of the
human family confronts their paradigm of the smallness of their working
model.
