- Jesus accompanies his disciples. He is merciful to them after they abandoned Him, and to Peter especially in today's Gospel.
- The Apostles “rejoice to be found worthy to suffer for the name” of Jesus. This was partly because they were making up for their previous abandonment; partly because they now realize they are living Christ's own story in their lives (taking up their Cross, dying to the world, living for God by the Holy Spirit).
- They are WITNESSES above all, and so must we be.
- Amoris Laetitia
- Introductory remarks
- Concluding Summary
- Chapter Titles & brief comments
- The family is one of the most important ways that Christians can offer a witness to the world. If Jesus is alive, we need to show it in our families. It must change us just like it changed Peter, like it changed Paul and all the Apostles, like it has changed so many saints in the past 20 centuries. Our world needs saints of the family more than ever. Let us live the Joy of true love in marriages and family life.
