Fr. Marion Nguyen, OSB, reflects on the Gospel for the Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time, focusing on the parable of the treasure hidden in a field. He draws on Saint Gregory the Great's insight: the treasure is hidden a second time to protect it from vanity. The one who discovers it sells everything with joy. This reflection reminds us that the Christian life is first a discovery, then a joyful surrender.
