Preaching on the parable of the wicked tenants and the Feast of Saint Francis, Br. Keith Nelson confronts supersessionist (the Christian doctrine stating that the Church has replaced or superseded the Jewish people as God’s covenanted people) readings of Scripture and exposes the destructive illusion of possessiveness. He invites us into “Eucharistic living” and total self-offering, finding true freedom not in accumulation, but in radical generosity and thanksgiving.
