176. How the Hope of the Resurrection Changes Everything.

Today, I’m focusing on the resurrection of Christ, which is the cornerstone of our faith, providing hope during life's challenges. By anchoring our faith in the resurrection, we can navigate the complexities of life with a renewed perspective. We can embrace both the hardships and the hope that the resurrection offers, it is possible to find peace and purpose even in difficult times! Let us be an Easter people, filled with hope and grace.

 This week, Catholics across the world mourn the loss of Pope Francis. A man full of hope and a life rooted in the resurrection. He was an incredible witness of what it means to live a life dedicated to simplicity and the poorest among us. He ushered the Church into the social media era. Let us pray for his soul as God welcomes him into his kingdom!
