Listen "Mary Magdalene and the Call to Bring Our Bondages to Christ"
Episode Synopsis
Mary Magdalene and the Call to Bring Our Bondages to Christ
Today’s readings highlight a tension: Scripture warns against the love of money, . . .
. . . yet the Gospel shows wealthy women using their resources to support Jesus’ mission. Paul, writing to Timothy, reminds church leaders not to misuse their position for personal gain but instead to focus on faith, charity, and holiness . . . treasures that endure beyond this life.
True Wealth
True wealth lies not in possessions but in placing resources at the service of God and others. The Gospel also underscores the important role of women, particularly Mary Magdalene, once bound by seven demons, who became a steadfast disciple. Their witness teaches us to bring our own “bondages” to Christ, who transforms wounds into instruments for His kingdom.
The Homily challenges us to reject greed, embrace faith, and use what we have for God’s mission.
