St Therese’s Little Way – Sep 23 – Homily – Fr. Jim Costigan

 

Guest Homilist Fr. Jim Costigan gives the homily at Bloomington, IN on Sep 23 on how Jesus in the Gospel points to the need to be little like a child as taught by St. Therese of Lisieux in her "little way".We should become like little children, childlike not childish. We should be willing to do what is not pleasing to our ego to not seek what makes us look good in front of people but rather what looks good in God's eyes, especially obedience. This was the final homily for the retreat called "Fight the Fight" on Spiritual Warfare being held at the Mother of the Redeemer Retreat Center in Bloomington, Indiana
