Show Notes When tragedy strikes a person or a family, a normal reaction is to feel overwhelmed. Consumed by grief, sorrow, even worry. But what happens when tragedy after tragedy emerges? How can we come to a place of feeling like God isn't punishing us? How can we handle it when God gives us more than one Cross to carry? When will this end? In this episode, Andrea interviews her friend, Denise Johnson, who shares the trials of navigating multiple medical diagnoses in her children and how she chooses to carry each cross with great faithOur GuestDenise Johnson has navigated the medical complexities of a daughter's survival of terminal brain cancer, three children living with hemophilia as well as a son with epilepsy.

Read OnlineAnd when Jesus saw that he answered with understanding, he said to him, “You are not far from the Kingdom of God.” And no one dared to ask him any more questions. Mark 12:34Among the scribes and Pharisees, the scribe in today's Gospel stands out. He got it right, and Jesus praised him for his openness and understanding. The scribe began by asking Jesus a question: “Which is the first of all the commandments?” At that time, the scribes and Pharisees often debated the question of which commandments were most important. From the Torah, the first five books of the Old Testament, they derived 613 commandments. Among them were the Ten Commandments and numerous ceremonial and civil laws by which they were to abide. Some religious leaders taught that all 613 of the commandments were equally important. In addition to these commandments, rabbinic traditions also offered detailed commentary on how they were to be fulfilled.Jesus enters this debate and answers by quoting the Shema from Deuteronomy 6:4–5 and Leviticus 19:18: “Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength” and “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” These two commandments were clear articulations of the most central duties to which we are called—love of God and love of neighbor. Furthermore, they were a twofold summary of the Ten Commandments, the most important of the Old Testament Laws.While many scribes and Pharisees were scrupulous about keeping the external law in a detailed and ritualistic manner, they often failed to perceive and live its central meaning. Jesus clarifies this meaning in His concise answer. He does not dismiss the importance of God's many commandments but highlights their central purpose. The ritualistic laws and moral commandments, while essential, are ultimately means to an end; they direct us to love. Jesus shows that love of God and neighbor is the true fulfillment of the Law, uniting both aspects into one comprehensive commandment that sums up everything God asks of us.Jesus was not rejecting the necessity of the commandments themselves but was emphasizing that their observance must flow from the heart. God's Law is not just about external compliance but about cultivating a heart transformed by love. The laws and rituals of faith, such as fasting in Lent, attending Sunday Mass, and going to Confession, have their rightful place in our spiritual lives. They shape us and help keep us close to God. However, we must always remember their deeper purpose: They are meant to foster a greater charity for God and others. Without that charity, even the most rigorous external observances can become empty.Reflect today on how obedient you are to God's Law. Most importantly, ponder the depth of charity you have. True charity toward God and neighbor will enable us to fulfill all external observance of God's Law, but it will not stop there. There is no limit to love. We can always increase it. We must increase it. Charity, while requiring our active cooperation, ultimately flows from God's grace working within us. Without His grace, our efforts to love are incomplete. If we understand this and seek to love with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, then, like this scribe, Jesus will say to us, “You are not far from the Kingdom of Heaven.”My loving Lord, You call us to love You with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength and to love our neighbor as ourselves. You fulfilled this commandment perfectly, and You promise us the grace to do the same. Help me to obey every detail of Your divine will and grant me the Gift of Understanding so that I will understand and live Your Law in the way You intend. Jesus, I trust in You.

Today, we reflect on a passage from St. Luke regarding Jesus' authority over demonic forces and the arrival of God's kingdom. He rejects the accusations of the skeptics who claimed Christ used evil powers, arguing instead that such miracles prove a divine presence. The gospel emphasizes that individuals must choose to stand with Christ or be considered against Him, highlighting that neutrality is not an option in matters of faith. This spiritual commitment is linked to practical obedience, such as attending Sunday Mass and following religious laws. Ultimately, the message reminds the audience that while they possess the freedom to choose, they must also accept the responsibility and consequences of their moral decisions.

Fr. Robert McTeigue provides guidance for those who are confused about worship. In a world that often appears increasingly disordered, why should the faithful approach divine worship with greater seriousness and reverence? If the Mass is frequently treated as a mere social obligation or an inconvenience, what responsibility do clergy and laity share in restoring a proper understanding of its sacred purpose as an act of reparation offered to God for debts that can never be fully repaid? Father finishes with Weekend Readiness to help prepare you for Sunday Mass.
