On the 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time, we heard about the 10 lepers who were healed by Jesus, with only one returning.

And a reminder: if you are struggling with this message or find yourself believing some of these ideologies that were discussed and maybe didn't realize were intrinsically evil - know first and foremost that you are loved. And it's precisely because you are loved by God and us that we are called to oppose the ideologies, because these ideologies don't lead to happiness and human flourishing. Special Guest: Fr. David Hust.
