Jesus our Hope: CREATED

This is the 1st of a 4 part series, Jesus our Hope. This weekend we looked at CREATED. We can marvel at things others have made: buildings, structures, etc. We marvel at the ingenuity of man. The things that are created can say a lot about the individual. If that's true, what does creation say about God? Fr. Phil dives into the question "Why is there something rather than nothing?" and leads us in a reflection about creation and the universe.

Reflection Questions:

1. How is contemplating the grandeur of the universe impacting you right now?
2. In your experience, how many Catholics have been overwhelmed by the message of the Gospel and brought to a decision to surrender to Jesus?
3. What practical things can we do to change that?
