Homily | July 2, 2026 | Heal The Soul First | (Episode 183)

Published 2 months, 2 weeks ago
Description

We look to God to fix what hurts on the surface, but Jesus keeps steering us toward the deeper work of healing the soul. We trace that pattern through Amos’s unlikely calling and the paralytic’s surprise encounter with mercy, then land on why confession is still a living miracle. 
• our instinct to pray for changed circumstances while Jesus aims at the heart 
• God’s priority of the soul over the body without denying real suffering 
• Amos as an ordinary worker called into an extraordinary mission 
• the cost of speaking truth when it disrupts comfort and power 
• Jesus forgiving sins before healing as a reveal of divine authority 
• the sacrament of reconciliation as healing for guilt, shame, and hidden wounds 
• the real miracle of turning sinners into saints through grace 
So today, let us bring him not only our problems, but our hearts.
