About this Episode

Homily from the The Epiphany of the Lord

Indifference can turn into hostility.

Christ has come close. And yet, we all still have a choice: will we remain indifferent to His presence or will we seek Him out? If we choose indifference, we will not remain indifferent. When it comes to God, we either give Him our hearts or we remove Him from our lives.
