Join Fr. Charlie Bouchard OP for a Word of Hope reflection for Wednesday of the 5th Week of Lent (April 9, 2025). We talk a lot about freedom today, but what kind? Reflecting on the Gospel (John 8:31-42), Fr. Charlie explores Jesus' profound statement: "The truth will set you free."
Discover why truth and freedom cannot be separated. Learn how prioritizing truth, even when challenging, leads to authentic freedom, unlike a focus solely on individual choice that can neglect shared reality. Fr. Charlie connects this to the Dominican motto "Veritas" (Truth) and calls us to:
- Acknowledge our own untruthfulness.
- Commit to seeking and speaking truth.
- Find genuine freedom, justice, and charity through Christ, the Truth.
