The Inner Life

Msgr. Tom Richter joins Patrick for the fourth of a special Lenten Series on the 7 Last Words of Jesus – today’s topic, Spiritual Abandonment * The Allusions of Control. * (8:53) Jesus and Psalm 22. (21:24) Break 1 * (22:27) Tom - I've always wondered if Jesus felt because of his humanity we as human would feel abandoned by God. Was that an expression of his human feeling because he was fully human. How can Christ feel he was abandoned? if he were fully human, he would feel that way. Can you explain that? * (26:27) How Jesus abandoned Himself to God. * How can we trust that God still loves us through the challenging times in our life? (38:54) Break 2 * How can we cultivate Faith in our lives? * (45:18) Entrusting to God all of those who will be affected by my abandonment.
