Welcome to The Woodlands Podcast. During July I’ll be offering a series of readings from some of my books. This week you’ll hear a passage from Gospel Memories. All subscribers receive a brief free version of the episode. Paid subscribers have access to the full audio. All proceeds from paid subscriptions are used for alms.
Here are some questions for reflection:
Imagine that you are Mary or Martha. You have sent for Jesus to heal your brother Lazarus, but he doesn’t come. Lazarus dies. What are you feeling and thinking about Jesus?
Tell a story about a difficult time in your life when you struggled to see God at work or couldn’t see God at all. Be as specific as you can. What were you feeling and thinking about God?
If you still cannot see how God responded to that situation, how is that shaping your relationship with God now? What do you want to say to God about that? •
If, on looking back, you can see how God was at work, what did that teach you about your true self? About God?
