In a world bent on dividing and condemning, how might we listen to and seek reconciliation with the complex song our whole life is singing? On the sixth Sunday after Pentecost, Christopher Mack seeks illumination on the intimacy shared between David and Jonathan, and what it teaches us about loving ourselves and loving our enemies. [2 Samuel 1:23-27]
