Who let these hoodlums in, Bill, Beth and Rob.

True? 

We are so obsessed with doing that we have no time and no imagination left for being. As a result, men are valued not for what they are but for what they do or have — for their usefulness.

 For those who don’t have a decent Bible or a book of the readings, here are two links that I use, The Bible at Your Fingertips and USCCB, The New American Bible. 

The difference?  The first is Protestant more or less, and the second is officially Catholic and has the 12 little books in between the O.T. & N.T., called Deuterocanonical or Apocrypha. 

Both are good translations.
