Sometimes we need someone to fight for us, to respond forcefully to injustice in our lives. Jesus does this, as he did in the temple – He’s not afraid to clean house.

Restoring Our Actions and Attitudes
How do we act? What are our attitudes toward our relationships, lives, and vocations? This week, the invitation to restoration is to start living like Jesus, and we present the Beatitudes as a way to make this happen in our lives. The Beatitudes are Jesus’ actions and attitudes.
