Predestined, Ephesians 1:11. Versevisions Art

“When you are invited by someone to a wedding banquet, do not sit down at the place of honor, in case someone more distinguished than you has been invited by your host; and the host who invited both of you may come and say to you, ‘Give this person your place,’ and then in disgrace you would start to take the lowest place. But when you are invited, go and sit down at the lowest place.” - Jesus

When executing a search for 'radical humility', the information found is limited... it seems that the two words, radical and humility, are not a common pairing... one can find a sermon/homily 'Humility, Openness, Inclusion' posted by Pastor Andy Ballentine, St. Stephen Lutheran Church, Williamsburg, Virginia http://www.saintstephenlutheran.net/sermons/2004/08-29-04.htm. Included is a story involving Robert Coles and Dorothy Day, a saintly woman one may not be familiar with. It is short and to the point... an easy and enlightening read.
