Series on Conversion by Fr Haggerty (7/8)
When we get to know Jesus, our need for “stuff” — for entertainment, for status — is lessened.

Sometimes, having a very happy-looking social media feed is much easier than having a happy heart and home in reality. But we’re not going for things to look good; instead, we’ll be good and persevere in this goodness…
