Daily gospel online: June 14, sheep of his flock
The ritual of the daily gospel has not died with digitalization. Every Sunday, a network of users reproduces the liturgical readings, the psalm and the homily in discussion spaces. But beyond mere transcription, the phenomenon reveals a demand for curated spiritual content that traditional media have ceded to communities.
The first reading of the day comes from the book of Exodus (19, 2-6a), where God proposes a covenant to Israel: "You shall be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation." The responsorial psalm is Psalm 99, with the verse "We are his people and the sheep of his flock." The liturgy also includes the homily by Father Santiago Martín, of the Franciscans of Mary, and the saint of the day according to Vatican News.
Besides the gospel, the community shares other devotional resources: the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, recommended at 3 pm, and the Apophthegmata Patrum of the Desert Fathers, a collection of sayings from the 17th-century hermits compiled by Heribert Rosweyde. The Holy Rosary is announced for 10:00 pm.
This practice is likely to persist as long as there is a faithful core seeking the daily word. But if moderation is automated or the institutional offering is modernized, the community could migrate to more visual platforms.
