7 April • Would You Risk Death Rather Than Sin? Susanna's Story
In this A Word of Hope episode for Monday, April 7 (5th Week of Lent), Fr. Tom Lynch OP delves into the gripping story of Susanna from Daniel 13. Faced with lustful elders, she had to choose between secret sin and public disgrace (likely leading to death).
Her decision to risk death rather than "sin before the Lord" powerfully illustrates the preciousness of virtue and integrity. Fr. Tom uses her example to ask us pertinent questions for our Lenten journey: Are we tending to our inner spiritual life? Are we actively working to remove vice and foster virtue?
A challenging and inspiring reflection from Fr. Tom Lynch, Pastor of St. Pius V Parish, Chicago.
