S02 Ep. 21 – Journeying With God in the Midst of Tragedy

Fr. Eric speaks about how a recurring theme in the Gospel texts during the Easter season is this idea of God journeying with people in the midst of tragedy. 

Fr. Eric expounds upon this theme while citing the stories of Jesus appearing in the midst of St. Thomas and other disciples while dialoging with Thomas about the reality of pain and tragedy in his life (Jn 20:24-29); the encounter between Mary Magdalene and the Risen Lord (Jn 20:1-18); and the iconic story of the two disciples journeying with Christ on the Road to Emmaus (Lk 24:13-35).

As a concluding example, Fr. Eric cites S02 Ep. 19 of the Abiding Together Podcast entitled “Untying the Knots.”  Here is a link to the relevant episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0zNdDnH2YERd280XUEwQLe?si=Pv6cUaA2TtWJhI1foAaz4g.
