This was a talk given to our group of men doing Exodus90 at the parish. Exodus90 is not a painful masochism, but is a virtuous walk of prayer helping to integrate the suffering of the cross in our life that keeps us in our weakness, failure, and sin always looking towards Jesus Christ. Below you can find the pdfs of the sections read.
