## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  Galatians 1:3–10

  **Show the text**

  3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

  4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father—

  5 to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

  6 I marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different “good news”,

  7 but there isn’t another “good news.” Only there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.

  8 But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any “good news” other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.

  9 As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you any “good news” other than that which you received, let him be cursed.

  10 For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.

- Gospel

  Luke 9:57–62

  **Show the text**

  57 As they went on the way, a certain man said to him, “I want to follow you wherever you go, Lord.”

  58 Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”

  59 He said to another, “Follow me!” But he said, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”

  60 But Jesus said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but you go and announce God’s Kingdom.”

  61 Another also said, “I want to follow you, Lord, but first allow me to say good-bye to those who are at my house.”

  62 But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for God’s Kingdom.”
