Description:

What is the essence of God's gift of grace? This series will examine the marvelous gifts of grace and divine help that are given to us through the death and resurrection of Christ and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. From the beginning of time, God has provided humanity with every means necessary to seek, to find, and to love him. By his Paschal Mystery, Jesus Christ pours out abundant gifts to enable those who believe in him to live as children of God. Drawing on the Sacred Scripture, the wisdom of the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, and papal and conciliar teaching, these lectures provide a solid catechesis on grace, virtue, and the moral life. You will be introduced to great saints and mystics who illustrate the results of putting these gifts to good use and encourage us to accept and respond to the extraordinary treasures God offers. This edifying course will expand your understanding of God's love, and it will touch your heart.
