PODCAST | Dream Big: On the Founding of Opus Dei
[ View Transcript ]
In this meditation, Fr. Leo Austin helps us pray with the founding vision of Opus Dei and what it means for our own vocation today. Inspired by a common aspiration of St. Josemaría, “Domine, ut videam” (“Lord, that I may see”), we are reminded that God calls us not only to pray for but to transform every corner of the world with Christ’s love.
Listen now to reflect on:
- The founding moment of Opus Dei as a “revolution of love”
- The Gospel of Zacchaeus as a story of vocation and freedom
- The hidden life of Jesus as the foundation of the spirit of Opus Dei
- The meaning of vocation as God’s call and our personal dream with him
