Father Anthony encourages us to return to the Lord’s grace so that He may have mercy upon us.

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.

Father Anthony reflects on the mystery proclaimed at the opening of the Gospel: “In the beginning was the Word.” He explores how Christ is not only present at creation but is creation’s meaning—the eternal Word through whom all things were made, who enters the world not with force but with humility and love.
