DO YOU LOVE ME?
Redemptorist Homilies on the Go!
IN THIS PODCAST:
Jesus asked Peter a simple question about their relationship, but inquired three times. The searing pain of his threefold denial of his Lord and Savior caused Peter to lash out. Jesus, though, was offering Peter mercy to replace his guilt. Furthermore, he was taking the opportunity to reiterate the driving force that our first pope (and any who would follow) would need to exhibit to shepherd his flock: self-sacrificial love. Thankfully, this virtue is offered to each of us, as a free gift. This gift, though, like those of faith and of hope, are given to us for much more than our personal consumption. Let us reflect with Fr. Sandeep to whom do we need to extend self-sacrificial love today as the saints of the day, St. Charles Lwanga & Companions have done so?
This homily was preached on the passage from Jn 21:15-19 b
