PODCAST | Wanting Jesus Alone to Shine
As we prepare for and celebrate the Feast Day of St. Josemaria Escriva on June 26, we share a new podcast from Fr. Peter Armenio reflecting on the spiritual aspiration of St. Josemaria: to hide and disappear, wanting Jesus alone to shine.
Inspired by the Holy Spirit, St. Josemaria set out to encounter Christ in the ordinary moments of everyday life. In this podcast, Fr. Peter Armenio reflects on the humble, yet impactful, life of St. Josemaria and connects his life to the lessons Christ shares with us in the parable of the mustard seed.
As Christians, we also desire to be inspired by the Holy Spirit to have the faith, hope and love to begin again in our pursuit of following Christ more closely and settling for nothing less than personal holiness.
