Father Ryan Boetcher | September 28, 2025 What does it mean to be truly wealthy? Drawing from the prophet Amos, Psalm 146, and Jesus's parable of the rich man and Lazarus, Father Ryan contrasts two visions of wealth: one that isolates us through accumulation, and God's "great economy" where wealth is measured by what we give away. Through stories ranging from "It's a Wonderful Life" to the Lakota people to St. Francis, this sermon challenges us to find "life that is really life."

Join Father Shawn, Melissa Flanagan, and Father Ryan as they dive into the history and heart behind Resurrection Church's beloved St. Francis Fest! In this episode, we explore who St. Francis was, why churches have blessed animals for centuries, and how this 9th annual celebration has become a cornerstone community event in South Austin.
