Podcasts about turning the other cheek

What if true strength meant responding to wrongs with grace? Here we look at Jesus' teachings on retribution and mercy from the Sermon on the Mount. Find out why how "turning the other cheek" isn't about weakness, but a powerful transformation of the heart. We also cover what it means to go the extra mile in a world fixated on fairness. This isn't about following rules—it's about embodying the revolutionary love of Christ in everyday conflicts. Listen now and be inspired to live out grace in ways that reflect the transformative power of the gospel.

Who is your enemy? Does someone who harmed or hurt you come to mind? This sermon explores Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5:38-42 on loving our enemies and waiving our right to retaliate. While it's natural to seek revenge against those who harm us, Jesus calls us to a supernatural response—choosing love over retaliation. We must trust God as our vindicator and extend love by praying for, blessing, and doing good to those who have wronged us

Along with prudence, fortitude, and temperance, justice is one of the four cardinal virtues that define a good life. However, if justice is not tempered by mercy, forgiveness, or nonviolence, it becomes a weapon of retribution. ----------------------------------------- About Bishop Barron: Bishop Robert Barron is the founder of Word on Fire Catholic Ministries, Auxiliary Bishop of Los Angeles, and the host of CATHOLICISM, a groundbreaking, award winning documentary about the Catholic Faith.

True justice does not only restore the oppressed...it restores the oppressor as well.

In our passage, Jesus gives an important principle of dealing with evil - don'tanswer evil with evil. Experience shows that this is harder than it seems, andhow ready we are to get back at people who hurt us. While it might cost ussomething, this is the way we find victory against evil in our own lives, and in ourworld. Today, we will look at Jesus' words and consider how we should respondto the ways people hurt us?

Deb asks the question along with related questions texted in by the congregation. Covering such issues as forgiveness, "doormats and gatekeepers" as well as justice and politics, Donald tries to answer the questions.

Year A–Seventh Sunday of Ordinary Time The Gospel reading for this upcoming Sunday Mass for the 7th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year A, comes from Matthew 5:38-48.

We had so many great questions come in after our sermon on Matthew 5:38-48, where Jesus calls us to turn the other cheek, that we had to go deeper than a few questions after the sermon. So, we recorded a conversation between Joel and Julie and Res City members Andrea Kidder and Luke Sandstrom, sharing thoughts on some of the harder questions around living these words of Jesus out truly and practically. Questions ranged from war, abuse, the death penalty, violence in the Old Testament, what does turning the other cheek actually mean, and more! 

It's normal to love those who love us, and require an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth for our enemies. Jesus says this will not work if we want to follow him, however. All that is is flirting with the same fire that caused our enemy to do evil to us in the first place. Instead, we are to turn the other cheek, go the extra mile, give them the shirt off our back. These are famous words, but do we take them as seriously as Jesus meant for us to? In this sermon, Pastor Joel walks through one of the most famous passages of the Sermon on the Mount, and also one of the most radical. What does it look like to love our enemies like Jesus does? Why must we be careful so that we are not overcome by evil? And how does it all connect directly to the gospel? Listen and find out!

We all go through challenging situations that can make or break us. They can cause anger, and we have to step back sometimes and ask ourselves if it is worth it. In this episode of The Real Build, I wanted to address some situations that personally happened to me in business recently. In these situations, Ive had to turn the other cheek. Ive had to take the high road and not let the issues get the best of me. This is challenging, but through a lot of personal development, Ive learned that it's what I need to do. The outcome is always better.

“But I say to you, offer no resistance to one who is evil. When someone strikes you on your right cheek, turn the other one to him as well.”  Matthew 5:39This is a hard teaching to embrace!Did Jesus really mean this?  Often, when put in the situation where someone wrongs us or hurts us we can tend to immediately rationalize away this Gospel passage and presume it doesn't apply to us.  Yes, it's a hard teaching to believe and an even harder one to live.What does it mean to “turn the other cheek?”  First, we should look at this on a literal level.  Jesus did mean what He said.  He is the perfect example of this.  Not only was He slapped on the cheek, He was also brutally beaten and hung on a cross.  And His response was, “Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.”  Therefore, Jesus does not call us to do anything that He Himself was not willing to do.Turning the other cheek does not mean that we need to cover up another's abusive actions or words.  We ought not pretend that they have done nothing wrong.  Jesus Himself, in forgiving and in asking the Father to forgive, acknowledged the grave injustice He received at the hands of sinners.  But the key is that He did not allow Himself to be drawn into their malice.Often times, when we feel like another flings mud at us, so to speak, we are tempted to fling it right back.  We are tempted to fight and push the bully back.  But the key to overcoming the malice and cruelty of another is to refuse to be drawn down into the mud.  Turning the other cheek is a way of saying that we refuse to degrade ourselves to foolish bickering or arguing.  We refuse to engage irrationality when we encounter it.  Instead, we choose to allow another to reveal their malice to themselves and to others by peacefully accepting it and forgiving.  This is not to say that Jesus wants us to perpetually live in abusive relationships that are more than we can handle.  But it does mean that we will all encounter injustice from time to time and we need to handle it with mercy and immediate forgiveness, and not become drawn into returning malice for malice.  Reflect, today, on any relationships that are difficult for you.  Especially reflect upon how ready you are to forgive and to turn the other cheek.  Doing this may just bring you the peace and freedom you seek in that relationship.My forgiving Lord, help me to imitate Your great mercy and forgiveness.  Help me to forgive those who have hurt me and help me to rise above any injustice I encounter.  Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2022 My Catholic Life!
