Exercising the Theological Virtue of Faith - Jun 27 - Homily - Fr Terrance

Fr Terrance gives the homily at Bloomington, IN on Jun 27, 2020, on how Faith is a theological virtue that requires the gift of God, first given in baptism, but requires that we exercise this virtue to make it grow to ever greater perfection of trust. Faith is both a gift from God but it is also a habit of trust Martin Luther denied that it is a theological virtue Temptations to give up the faith and how to fight them Why God sends trials - So that we can gain merit by walking in faith - Enduring them helps us grow - Enables to suffer for others - Experience the suffering and abandonment of Christ Ave Maria!
