Sermon Notes

  • Sermon on Lent 4 Year C 2016.docx

Today's story is one that still lays claim to familiarity in the Church and, indeed, in our wider culture. However, this familiarity may not be a good thing if it stands in the way of Jesus' most important point! A point that Fr. Allen seeks to draw out in this sermon that confronts the "prodigal" in all of us.
