Fr. Andrew’s 5th Sunday of Lent Homily Podcast
We all sin, and sometimes our disastrous mistakes become public humiliations. Yet like the woman in the Gospel today we encounter the Lord who simultaneously acknowledges the sin and blesses us with forgiving grace. Through an honest appraisal of our hearts and an open acceptance of God’s love we can be renewed to live with power and joy. Simply put, may we name the sin and claim the mercy.
