What Net Are You Trying To Fix?

Dear Brothers and Sisters, The Word on this Word of God Sunday is very precious indeed. There is much similarity between the gospel and the first reading where God sends Jonah a second time to Nineveh. Do you remember the story? Jonah refused to go the first time and gets on a ship and then…
