Diocese of East Tennessee: Weekly Lectionary

Diocese of East Tennessee: Weekly Lectionary says, "[Sunday's] readings call us to bring God's word to others, humbly and respectfully. Micah admonishes Israel's leaders, who, instead of speaking for God, have led people away from God. Paul's tenderness in bringing the gospel to the Thessalonians helped them receive the gospel as the word of God. Jesus teaches mutual respect and humility as the path to true honor."
