This is an essential command in these tumultuous times

This sermon, delivered on All Saints' Day, addresses the cognitive dissonance we experience when reciting challenging biblical texts like Psalm 145. With her customary wit and humor, Mother Paige discusses the duality of human existence, acknowledging that individuals are both blessed and broken. She draws on the gospel of Luke, particularly the Sermon on the Plain, highlighting Jesus’ call for comprehensive love and mutual salvation, and encourages us to love our enemies, support those who are suffering, remembering that Jesus has demonstrated these actions first. 00:00 Opening Prayer and Introduction00:08 Reflecting on the Psalm and Human Dissonance01:45 Understanding the Concept of Saints03:50 The Gospel of Luke: Blessings and Woes05:40 Comprehensive Nature of Beatitudes and Woes09:11 Jesus' Teachings on Love and Compassion10:50 Embracing Love and Saintliness
