April 11, 2021 - God Will Do What He Has Promised

Part 1 of Father Harris' Easter season homily series, “Arise: Experiencing Life in Christ.” Believing in the Risen Lord raises our expectations about what Jesus Christ can accomplish within us as we cooperate with Him. When we arise with faith in God, we trust that God will do what He has promised. We can cooperate with the Risen Lord by practicing the virtues of faith, hope, and love. God gave them to us through Holy Baptism. When we arise with faith in God, we trust in what God can do for Himself (i.e., rise from the dead), through His Church, and through each disciple. (Note: At one point, Father Harris had to address a major distraction in the church while he was preaching.)
