In this episode of 'Real Living,' Lavina Spirito and Mary Lou Nemecek delve into the often misunderstood concept of Holiness in the Catholic faith. They explore how the Second Vatican Council's document, Lumen Gentium, emphasizes the universal call to Holiness, making it clear that Holiness is not just for clergy or religious figures, but for everyone. The discussion touches on the principles of Holiness as described by St. John Paul II, including the necessity of God's grace, the need for personal cooperation with that grace, the inevitability of suffering and purification, and the ultimate worth of striving for holiness. They highlight that Holiness is fundamentally about love—loving God and loving one's neighbor—and discuss practical ways to live out this call in everyday life. The conversation encourages listeners to seek Holiness earnestly and reminds them that true fulfillment lies in deepening their relationship with God.Time Topic00:00 Introduction to Real Living00:22 Understanding Holiness01:13 The Universal Call to Holiness06:54 Principles of Holiness by John Paul II08:14 Challenges and Rewards of Holiness09:57 Holiness in Everyday Life16:47 Final Thoughts and Encouragement
