Peter Maurin and Matthew 25
from Bishop Barron’s Sunday Sermons - Catholic Preaching and Homilies Hosted by Bishop Robert Barron
Peter Maurin, the co-founder of the Catholic Worker Movement, took Jesus' words in our Gospel for today with consummate seriousness. He felt that the corporal and spiritual works of mercy constituted a sort of socio-economic program. Following the exhortation of Jesus, Maurin wanted to create a society in which "it is easier for men to be good." His example is still a challenging and compelling one today.
