Reflections with Fr. Michael Kelly - Wednesday 3 Nov, 2021
from UCA News Podcast · host Binu Alex, Fr. Michael Kelly, Grithanai Napasrapiwong
Luke’s gospel is very strong and consistent in emphasizing that faith begins with God’s invitation. But then the evangelist is very insistent that the invitation requires our response if anything is to be made of the the invitation. And that is very much to the fore in today’s text: Jesus is emphasizing the response to his invitation and the costly nature that response. And the cost of response is not less than everything. But in paying everything, again it is the grace of God that allows us to let go and give ourselves to God in a fully generous way.About the Speaker: Father Michael Kelly is a Jesuit priest and English language publisher of the respected Jesuit periodical, La Civilta Cattolica.
