On the Sunday of the Canaanite Woman, Jesus confronts us with the dead end of the whole idea of Tribalism. She wasn't an insider. She was not part of the "chosen" few. Her presence was upsetting because she insisted on bringing her plea to Christ. Jesus reveals the true ugliness of tribalism and the True beauty of persistent Faith. If we will keep a Good Lent, we need to remember both of these truths.
