Feelings vs Faith: Is Christianity Therapeutic? | 14th Sunday Ordinary Time | Year C


Listen Later

Are feelings becoming more important than truth in our culture?

In this homily, Fr Sam explores the growing dominance of "I feel" statements and the danger of replacing truth with personal comfort. Reflecting on the cost of true discipleship, Fr Sam draws from Carl Trueman, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and Jesus’ sending of the 72 disciples to emphasize that real faith often challenges rather than comforts. Discover how uniting our struggles with Christ’s cross transforms pain into profound joy.
