The Twenty-First Sunday in Ordinary Time 2021
“The childhood is fully vulnerable because the child is powerless, while those who care for him enjoy an all-powerful freedom. Instead of leading him rightly they can lead him astray in a variety of egotistical ways, oftentimes in a manner which is quite unconcious of its moral indifference.” (Hans Urs von Balthasar, Unless You Become Like This Child, pp. 12-13)
