[Summary] => Here He goes again! In today’s Gospel reading (Lk. 4: 21-30), Jesus is showing us that He came not just for His townmates, not just for His fellow-Jews, but for all. Not just for Roman Catholics with a capital "C" but for all non-Catholics as well. He is catholic with a small "c", which means universal, cosmic. Jesus preached about a universal home, a home for one and all. The one and the same home for Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, Buddhists, Jews, and all others.
