For 28 January 2020, The Feast of St. Thomas Aquinas, Doctor of the Church, based on Matthew 23:8-12
Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples, “you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher, and you are all students. And call no one your father on earth, for you have one Father—the one in heaven. Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one instructor, the Messiah. The greatest among you will be your servant. All who exalt themselves will be humbled, and all who humble themselves will be exalted.”
