## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  Philippians 1:27–2:4

  **Show the text**

  27 Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

  28 and in nothing frightened by the adversaries, which is for them a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that from God.

  29 Because it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on his behalf,

  30 having the same conflict which you saw in me and now hear is in me.

  1 If therefore there is any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,

  2 make my joy full by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;

  3 doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;

  4 each of you not just looking to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.

- Gospel

  Luke 7:31–35

  **Show the text**

  31 “To what then should I compare the people of this generation? What are they like?

  32 They are like children who sit in the marketplace, and call to one another, saying, ‘We piped to you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned, and you didn’t weep.’

  33 For John the Baptizer came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’

  34 The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man, and a drunkard; a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’

  35 Wisdom is justified by all her children.”
