For too long the distinction betwen Christians and the world has been blurred and distorted so that we no longer can discern between what is seemly and what is not. The apostle tells us to flee all appearance of evil, not to become as much like it as possible. St Mary of Egypt was an example of a prostitute who turned her life around. She did not spend her life hanging around brothels still wearing her harlot's attire creating a confusing message of the meaning of repentance, but fled to the desert and lived a chaste life of prayer and asceticism. Thus she set an example for all time which is still remebered after 1600 years.

Each week, as you reflect on guided Scripture readings aligned with the church seasons, you will receive a wealth of insight from historical and contemporary writings.
