Reference

John 21:1-19 (Acts 9:1-6)

Last week Fr. Allen tackled some of our most cherished beliefs about belief; this week, possibly something even more cherished: the notion of the "self" as it has developed in the West. It's the Risen Christ who shows us that our deepest truest self is found, not in isolated, individually driven choices but in relationship with a God who shows us who we might yet become through the dignity of questions.
