Have you ever noticed that sometimes the very things that bring you the deepest joy can also break your heart? Today, we hear a special, heartfelt reflection from Mike Merterharm, a Father and a member of Old St. Pat’s. In this episode, Mike reminds us that the heartbreak of parenting isn’t something to avoid, but a sacred stretching of the heart that deepens our capacity to love. Through this breaking open, we begin to grasp the truth of the Gospel—knowing we are never alone, but held by a God who understands love and loss, and still offers us hope.
