February 16, 2025: "Radical Resurrection Hope" with Julia Murphy


Listen Later

Preaching for the Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Julia Murphy offers a reflection on radical, Resurrection hope:"In these times of uncertainty, violence, and individualism, may we Christians act as if we believe in the Resurrection. José and his Salvadoran community showed my immersion group a model of this lived resurrection hope in their dedication to building their new home, as did those in Belize who welcomed them. They could not afford to live without hope. May this radical hope propel us into acts of compassion, hospitality, and bridge-building NOW, in our own ways, in our own communities." Julia Murphy (she/her) is a campus minister at Fairfield University in Connecticut. She coordinates domestic and international service immersion trips and other social justice ministries, and serves as the primary pastoral presence students at Fairfield Bellarmine, the university’s two-year associate’s degree program for low-income and first-generation students in Bridgeport, CT. She is also a residential minister and chaplain to first-year students. Julia holds an MDiv from the Boston College Clough School of Theology and Ministry and a B.A. in English and Spanish from Saint Louis University.Visitwww.catholicwomenpreach.org/preaching/02162025 to learn more about Julia, to read her preaching text, and for more preaching from Catholic women.
