About this sermon

In this episode of Gospel Picnic, Fr. Andy Davy reflects on Matthew 10:37-42 and helps children understand how much Jesus wants us to love God above everything else. Fr. Andy explains in a simple and joyful way that loving God first does not mean we stop loving our family, friends, toys, games, or dreams. It means that when Jesus is first in our hearts, He teaches us how to love everyone and everything in the right way. This episode is perfect for young viewers ages 5 to 12 and for families who want to grow in faith together through the Sunday Gospel.
