FrJonathan-2“Master, what good must I do to possess eternal life?” the rich young man asked Jesus in Matthew 19.

That’s a question each of us should ask today so we can find the best path to loving God the way He loves us.

In this week’s video reflection, Father Jonathan Morris explores the meaning of the rich young man’s story and what it can teach all of us – rich, poor, or somewhere in between – about ways we can move beyond our attachments to things other than God.
