Summary
This Lent we will immerse ourselves in the most important teaching of Jesus: the Sermon on the Mount, where He speaks on pride, envy, spiritual laziness, lust, anger, gossip, vanity, and greed. Step by step, learn how Jesus can help us overcome our dominant vices that enslave us. Lent is a time to seek freedom.
If you commit to daily meditation and a resolution, you will come out the other side of Lent freer and happier.

| 0:03.4 | Welcome to our daily rosary meditation. |
| 0:05.2 | Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. |

| 0:29.7 | Peace begins with a fundamental decision that St. Paul passionately begs us to make in the name of God. |
| 0:40.8 | We beg you on behalf of Christ, he says, |
| 0:49.5 | be reconciled to God. Paul Benedict goes on to say, enmity, that is the state of being an enemy of God, is the source of all that poisons man. Overcoming this enmity is the basic condition for peace |
| 0:58.7 | in the world. Only the man who is reconciled with God can also be reconciled and in harmony with |
| 1:05.9 | himself, and only the man who is reconciled with God and with himself can establish peace around him and throughout |
| 1:14.4 | the world. So, if you want peace in the world, then it begins with first being reconciled with God. |
| 1:25.8 | Our Father who art in heaven, hallow it be your name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. |
| 1:32.4 | Give us to stay our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation to deliver us from evil, amen. |
