September 1, 2024 | "The Promise of Eternity"

How often do we truly think about eternity? By reflecting on Mary Eberstadt's insights into urban life and family dynamics, we'll question how many of us genuinely orient our lives toward the promise of eternity today.Shifting our attention from the transient to the eternal, we'll explore the contrast between modern-day commitments and the elusive idea of eternity. Through compelling anecdotes, such as a young priest's attempt to call for confessions at a wake and a young woman's fervent mission to end oil by 2030, we highlight how contemporary society often prioritizes immediate concerns over everlasting ones. ************Father Don Wolf is a priest of the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City.
