God promised Abraham incredible fertility (Genesis 17), making him the father of nations. But the covenant wasn't just about God's promises; it required faithfulness from Abraham and his descendants. In this Word of Hope for Thursday, 5th Week of Lent (April 10, 2025), Fr. Charlie Bouchard OP asks: How are we keeping our side of the covenant?
He relates God's promise of fertility to our own call to be generative – using our gifts fruitfully throughout life. This reflection challenges us to consider not just what we've done, but how we've been faithful. Learn how we can continue to be "fertile" in new ways, especially through charity, as we age, thus fulfilling our covenant and walking towards eternal life.
