As Lent Begins, New EWTN Series Brings the Faithful Closer to Christ | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday and the start of Lent, and EWTN is offering an online video series seeking to bring the faithful closer to Christ. 'The 7 Last Words' is a 7-part online series presented by EWTN's own Father Joseph Mary Wolfe. The series features reflections on our Lord's final words on the cross. The series is free and can be found under the learning series tab on the EWTN main page. Fr. Joseph Mary Wolfe joins to walk us through the ideation and creation of the series. As the title suggests Jesus made 7 final statements on the cross and Fr. Joseph has a meditation for each. He discusses whether there is one in particular that really impacted him. Mother Angelica, EWTN's founder, talked a lot about "interior mortification." Fr. Joseph tells us how that phrase plays into the evolution of the series. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
