What does God really want from us?
When you look at every religion, Christian or otherwise, you’ll find worship at the heart. No matter who or what our religion is calling us to, we are meant to worship. And even further, the heart of worship is sacrifice. In order to truly love and worship something or someone, we must give something up in return, whether that be time, attention, or material possessions.
Today, Fr. Mike explains what’s at the heart of religion, and how realizing this can strengthen our relationship with God.
