Religion v Relationship | Corpus Christi Sunday | Year C

from The Average Shepherd · host Fr Sam French

Is your faith something you know, or Someone you’ve met?In this homily, Fr Sam reflects on the deep ache many Catholics carry: how do we bring our children, friends, or loved ones back to the Church? He shares his own story of encountering Jesus in the Eucharist as a teenage, and how that encounter changed everything. This powerful reflection moves beyond rituals and rules, to the heart of our Catholic life: the relationship with the living Christ, truly present in the Blessed Sacrament.Faith isn’t passed on through obligation, but through encounter. And the Eucharist is that encounter.Visit Fr Sam’s website to explore more: https://frsamfrench.comScripture Readings:Genesis 14:18-201 Corinthians 11:23-26Luke 9:11-17#Hashtags:#CatholicHomily #CorpusChristi #Eucharist #CatholicFaith #FrSamFrench #CatholicChurch #FaithAndRelationship #RealPresence #CatholicYouth #Evangelisation
