How St. Justin Found Truth in Divine Revelation – Jun 01 – Homily – Fr Joseph Michael

In this homily, Father McShane encourages us to keep our hearts open to God's love and guidance rather than letting them become hardened. He explains Jesus' parable about the vineyard, showing how the religious leaders of the time rejected God's prophets and His Son, and how this led to the foundation of the Church, with Jesus as its cornerstone. Father McShane then shares the inspiring story of Saint Justin the Martyr, a philosopher who found the ultimate truth in Christianity through divine revelation and courageously died for his faith. Finally, as June begins, we are reminded to dedicate this month to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, keeping our own hearts closely united to His.
