Jesus makes it very clear that what he calls his disciples to is not a religion of empty formalism but one that lives from and is nourished by a conversion of heart that aims to transform the lives of his followers and make them new as saved and redeemed people. He wants to change our hearts and so change our lives rather than just change our behavior and that is all -  conformity to a new etiquette - as if that can answer the hungers of our souls for redemption.

About the Speaker: Father Michael Kelly is a Jesuit priest and English language publisher of the respected Jesuit periodical, La Civilta Cattolica.
