Blessed Poverty: Key to Heaven – Aug 17 – Homily – Fr Terrance

 

Fr Terrance gives the homily at Bloomington, IN on Aug 17, 2021, on how poverty is often more of a blessing than wealth because it is easier to get into heaven without wealth especially if we are attached to it as is the tendency. Added to this is the fact that the richest people are not the happiest because we tend to trust in wealth for happiness yet only God can satisfy, so we must trust in Him, both for happiness in this life and as the key to heaven.
