September 14, 2025: The Cross that saves the World

In this special episode, we explore the Gospel for Sunday, September 14, 2025, as we celebrate the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. Jesus shows us that the Cross is not just a sign of suffering, but the greatest sign of God’s love for us. Through it, He teaches us that sacrifice—giving of ourselves for others—is an act of real, lasting love. Join us as we: Unpack the Gospel message: why the Cross is more than wood, but a symbol of life, hope, and God’s never-ending love. Discover how every Mass is a chance to be part of Jesus’ sacrifice on the Cross, made present for us—so we know that His love is here, today. Encourage families and children to see the Cross as a powerful reminder: Jesus loves you this much. Through gentle storytelling and simple explanations, this episode helps children (and families!) understand what the Cross really means, how it shows us God’s love, and why it’s the heart of the Mass.A note for parents: Use this podcast to prepare your little ones for Mass.
