Teaching Us to Pray - 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time

In this episode, Fr. Tom unpacks the bold prayer of Abraham, Jesus’ invitation to trust, and St. Paul’s reminder of the power of grace. These readings reveal a God who is not distant or indifferent, but near, merciful, and ready to act. But divine mercy isn’t automatic, it requires our cooperation. With open hearts, a desire for conversion, and a willingness to be changed, we discover that prayer isn’t just about asking, it’s about becoming. If you’ve ever wrestled with how to pray or whether God hears you, this message will challenge and encourage you to go deeper.
