Episode Synopsis

Today’s Scripture reflections for Tuesday of Holy Week:First Reading (Numbers 21:4-9): The Israelites, suffering from poisonous serpents, are healed when they look upon a bronze serpent lifted high, a foreshadowing of Christ’s saving work.Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 102:2-3, 16-18, 19-21): The Lord hears the cry of the poor and does not turn away from their suffering.Gospel (John 8:21-30): Jesus proclaims that when He is lifted up, all will recognize His true identity and the saving love of the Father.Through these readings, we are invited to face our wounds with faith, to trust that Christ’s Cross transforms suffering into salvation, and to find healing by lifting our eyes to the One who was lifted up for us during this sacred Holy Week journey.A ministry of Christus Dominus Bread of Life.Produced in collaboration with Christus Dominus Studios.
