    Much like the pains of labor endured by a mother bearing a child, sometimes our journey back to healing is a painful one.

    Fr Joseph reveals one of his Lenten pet peeves: “Do the best you can.” Do the best you can? Now brothers and sisters, that’s a recipe for failure.

Do the best you can.” No. We practice and practice and practice. We fall down, get back up; struggle to do better.

    Reality: The First Step Toward Salvation

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 9, 2022


    This week, Fr Joseph gets real: "The thing about Confession is that it is natural. That is, it is Real. Almost everything else we do with our sin is false and unnatural. We punish ourselves, justify our actions, and hide. Yet, in Confession -- in opening ourselves to God the Light -- we expose the hypocrisy of our double life. In truth, we've been living a lie. Without Confession, Absolution, and Reconciliation we live a lie before God and Man as if it were Reality. In reality, no one is fooled -- not our neighbor, not ourselves. And, let's be real, certainly not God."
