In today’s homily, Fr. Anthony Gramlich, MIC, reflects on one of the central teachings of Jesus: forgiveness without limits.

Father Anthony reflects on the story of Martha and Mary, encouraging us to balance action with contemplation in our own lives. Are we serving God out of our own strength, or allowing the Holy Spirit to guide us through prayer?

Father Anthony reflects on John 19:1–5 — the haunting scene of Jesus scourged, crowned with thorns, and presented to the crowd with the words, “Behold the man,” revealing the depth of His humility and love as He silently bears humiliation and pain for our salvation, inviting us to gaze upon Him, recognize our own sin and suffering laid upon His shoulders, and respond not with indifference, but with repentance, gratitude, and trust in His mercy.
