Life Changes

What does the Church offer during life's in-between seasons?

Life rarely stays the same for long. A new job, a growing family, or an unexpected change can leave us wondering what will stay steady when so much else is moving. Father Tim reflects on the image of the cross standing firm in an ever-changing world, and on how faith in Christ can give us a foundation through life's transitions.

Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.Matthew 7:24

There is something steady in the middle of change.

Our circumstances may shift, sometimes faster than we can make sense of them. Father Tim reminds us that Christ remains present through it all. Faith does not stop life from changing, but it can give us solid ground on which to stand while it does.

You don’t need to have everything figured out. If something in this reflection stayed with you, we can help you figure out where to go from here.
