1. Mk. 6: 18-29:
The story of John’s death is placed here to advert to the shadow of the cross
that is darkening the ministry of Jesus. When we live and speak the Gospel
clearly and directly, we are most like Jesus in his ministry suffering and
hidden glory. The shadow of the cross is always on the horizon of the church’s
work. The ministers of the church die and sometimes violently and pass on to
the Father every day.
