Fr John Corrigan says Jesus turns an accusation into a profound teaching opportunity, making the moment into a lesson on mercy and judgment. When we must judge others, we should do so with humility, mercy, and awareness of our own shortcomings

Mother Hilda says we can have both the "shadows" of shame and pain in our own lives and be "stone throwers." We’re called to recognize our own capacity for stone-throwing—those moments when we respond to hurt with further hurt

Fr Sean Cullen says Jesus's statement "If a man is true to my word, he shall never see death" can be misunderstood as him promising immortality, ignoring the deeper meaning of eternal life. By being true to Jesus's word and living as he taught, we can develop a depth and dimension in this life now that transcends death

Arnie Hurdoyal says Jesus’ question, “Do you want to be well again?” highlights personal desire and active participation in both physical and spiritual healing. Jesus offers healing that transcends physical restoration

Fr Antony Jukes says the Law's true purpose is not to save but to reveal sin and human shortcomings, helping people recognize their need for redemption. Since we all fall short of God's standards, salvation must come through Christ rather than through one's own efforts to follow the Law

On The Journey This Week: Fr John Corrigan says that like the prodigal son, homesickness precipitates conversion of heart to the Father. Mother Hilda says true healing and restoration come from love. Plus, Fr Tony Percy, Arnie Hurdoyal, and Fr Antony Jukes

Mother Hilda says true healing and restoration come from love. Love has the power to guide people home, even when the journey is difficult. By keeping our focus on God rather than ourselves or those estranged from us, we allow divine love to work in unexpected ways

Fr Tony Percy says one day we are the older brother, the next day we are the younger brother. The parable shows that either way there is hope. God is love, pure relationship. God just ‘is.’ Whereas we tend to think in terms of ‘if’: If we do this, then God will do this. God just is. No ifs. He loves us, creates us, redeems us

Fr John Corrigan says that like the prodigal son, we often stray through pride and sensuality, yet homesickness for God can stir our hearts and begin our journey back to him.

Sr Anastasia Reeves says God becoming human in the most ordinary way transformed Mary’s life, just as encountering Jesus can transform ours. These moments may appear ordinary on the surface, yet they change everything, offering us the incredible gift of faith, relationship, and salvation
