20 ВЕРЕСНЯ – НЕДІЛЯ 17-ТА ПО ЗІСЛАННІ СВЯТОГО ДУХА, НЕДІЛЯ ПО ВОЗДВИЖЕННІ.

The Eparchy of Wrocław-Koszalin released a reflection for the 17th Sunday after Pentecost, which falls on September 20.

The text contrasts the modern cult of human strength with the Christian devotion to the Cross. It notes that while society often views brute force as a successful tool for political and social construction, Christians worship the power of God revealed through the crucified Savior.

The reflection explains that following Christ requires denying oneself to open the heart to God's power. It describes taking up one's cross as accepting God's personal history of salvation within an individual's life, their people, and their society.
