Day 327: Origin of the Diaconate (2024)

Fr. Mike draws our attention to the cultural division present in
the early Church and the origin of the ordination to the diaconate.
He also discusses Paul’s frustration with those who didn’t
recognize Jesus as the Christ and offers consolation to those who
experience this in the hearts and minds of those close to them, as
Paul did. Today’s readings are Acts 6, Romans 9-10, and Proverbs
27:10-12. For the complete reading plan, visit
