Summary

In this episode, Fr. John and Mary reflect on the hopeful news that the world is ultimately in the hands of a Sovereign King who is good, has no rival, proven His love for us by laying down His life, and who calls us even now to help transform authority until He returns and makes all things new.

Daniel 4:13-14

EXAMEN FOR LEADERS:

  • Would people say that I am a leader for their sakes?
  • Do I surround myself with strong complementary people?
  • Am I raising up good followers or great leaders?
  • Do I develop plans on my own, or do I seek to discern the Lord’s plan and vision with others?
  • Do I clearly and consistently cast that vision to those whom we serve?
  • Do I desire to be magnanimous?

- How do I speak of and see those with whom I serve?

record just begging the Holy Spirit to fill us up as we come into this conversation.

We've been, we've had the privilege of being with a lot of priests and leaders over the last

1:54.8

And one day, we'll return and make all things new.

2:03.5

We ask that you would continue to correct our vision, fill us with hope, and help us to understand what it is that you're asking of us in these days. We ask it all in Jesus' name. Amen. In the name of the Father and
