Turn Your Crosses into Resurrections - Session #9
Session 9: How to Love The Ones Who Give Us Crosses
Download the hand-out for this session, Loving the Prodigal Son – Pope Francis.pdf. It’s a print-out of the text from Pope Francis’ homily that is quoted in this video.
Today's video unpacks the Pope’s message, revealing how the merciful father in the parable of the Prodigal Son shows us how to deal with our loved ones who reject us, who reject the Truth, who reject faith in Christ.
For discussion or personal reflection:
Considering the "prodigals" you know, describe the different parts of the Prodigal Son Parable that you have experienced:
(1) Watching them make wrong decisions.
(2) Watching for clues of a turn-around.
(3) Embracing their return.
How would you like to handle each of these stages?
God bless you!

What crosses are you carrying? Where is this hardship taking you spiritually? Maybe it feels like you're alone. Maybe Jesus doesn't seem to be carrying any of your burdens. Maybe you think that the reason you suffer is because he doesn't care about you.
You are invited to meet Jesus and his strong, compassionate arms lightening your burdens. Take our video workshop entitled, Turn Your Crosses Into Resurrections. Through a daily series of short videos, you will not only feel Jesus ministering to you. You will learn how to turn tragedies into triumphs, grief into joy, and the deaths of your hopes and dreams into resurrections -- just in time for Easter Sunday!
The daily email program begins March 28th and ends on Good Friday.
