The Man Born Blind




Musings from the High Desert show

Summary: Fr. Gabriel Rochelle looks at an overview of the Gospel of John, noting that all that needs to be said about the sacraments of baptism and the Eucharist has been completed by the sixth chapter. Then the gospel moves us to understand the fullness of the sacramental life beyond the rituals themselves, to see that we are caught up in God's presence in the everyday, if only we can see it. In this time of coronavirus, when not all of us can participate in the rites of the sacraments, we can understand ourselves in a larger context.
