03/09/25 The Place of the Way: The Desert

Homily from the First Sunday of Lent.

The only way out is through.

As we enter into the desert, the desert takes away the things we tend to trust in...the things we use as comforts and crutches...and we are led through the "training place" to the place of being able to live like Christ.
