About this listen
Halfway through Lent, the Church asks a searching question: what have you done with the space that sacrifice has opened in your life? This reflection draws from the Mass propers and readings for the Third Sunday of Lent — the Introit's cry of dependence on God, Saint Paul's call to walk as children of light, and Our Lord's sobering warning about the soul that is swept clean but left empty. With insights from Saint Augustine, Saint Cyril of Alexandria, Saint Teresa of Avila, and Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, we explore why removing sin is only half the work of conversion, and why filling our hearts with prayer, the sacraments, and love is what keeps the enemy from returning. Christ the Stronger One has entered the house of our soul — but He waits for us to furnish it with His presence.
