The OMG reflection from Steve Hessman
Inspired by Mass readings from Monday, March 2, 2026
Are Covenants important today?
Contracts are based on a promise. Covenants are based upon swearing an oath.
Click here to read Steve Hessman’s reflection from March 2, 2026. Here’s an excerpt:
A Covenant is irrevocable and is entered into with the agreement that it is permanently binding and cannot be dissolved. A contract, on the other hand, has provisions written into it to provide a means of dissolving the agreement if either party so desires. Scripture scholars have outlined five Covenants in the Old Testament and one in the New Testament.
Steve Hessman’s reflections: “Amen, Amen. Unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit.” John 12:24
