This Advent reflection centers on the theological virtue of hope, emphasizing that true hope is rooted not in human success or temporary achievements but in the unwavering love of God. Fr. Luke Mata contrasts divine hope with fleeting worldly hopes, encouraging listeners to rely on God’s grace rather than their own strength. Through Scripture, stories, and references to Pope Benedict’s encyclical Spe Salvi, Fr. Luke calls believers to deepen their hope in God’s promise of eternal life, avoid the pitfalls of presumption and despair, and share this hope with a world in need of light and meaning.
