Ep. 74 | Ask Jesus to Rebuild What Is Broken

from Meditations · host Called to More

What does it mean to call Jesus the “Cornerstone” and “King of the Nations”? In this meditation, Fr Gavan reflects on O Rex Gentium, the antiphon that presents Christ as the stone rejected by the builders yet chosen to anchor all humanity. Drawing on the ancient role of the cornerstone, St Paul’s teaching on the unity of Jew and Gentile, and our own frailty as creatures formed from dust, he shows how Christ alone holds the human family together. In this prayer, we ask the Lord who made us — and now remakes us — to come and save mankind, restoring us into a new creation founded on Himself.🔴 THIS SERIESMeditations | Ep. 72Meditations is a weekly podcast with Fr Gavan Jennings produced by Called to More.
