"No servant can serve two masters... You cannot serve God and mammon." (Luke 16:13) A Word of Hope by Fr. James Marchionda, OP for November 7, 2026, coming from St. Pius V Priory in Chicago, Illinois. In today’s installment, we reflect on Jesus’s well-known teaching from Luke’s Gospel—and how it builds directly on St. Paul’s reminder that our true citizenship is in heaven. What does "mammon" really mean? It isn't just about money in our bank accounts. Mammon is wealth, security, status, or productivity turned into something we *serve* rather than something we simply *use*. In a time when we constantly hear boasts about billions of dollars and national wealth, Jesus invites us to heal our divided hearts, rest secure in God's love, and recommit to a single allegiance: trusting God above everything this world offers. 📖 SCRIPTURE FOCUS: • Luke 16:13 ("No servant can serve two masters...
