Romans 8:28

Father Anthony reflects on this passage from Malachi, highlighting God’s call for a pure sacrifice and inspiring us to honor Him by attending Mass.

Father Anthony reflects on the startling tenderness of the Gospel in John 4, where Jesus waits at Jacob’s well and speaks to a Samaritan woman—crossing boundaries of history, prejudice, and shame with the simple request, “Give me a drink.” He explores how Christ does not approach her as a case to be judged, but as a soul to be known—thirst meeting Thirst, loneliness met by the steady gaze of mercy.
