St. Alphonsus Liguori: Give Everything to God | Doctor of Moral Theology

About this sermon

St. Alphonsus Liguori (1696–1787) is one of the greatest saints in Catholic history. A brilliant lawyer, gifted scholar, founder of the Redemptorists, bishop, Doctor of the Church, and Doctor of Moral Theology, he dedicated every talent God gave him to the salvation of souls. In this sermon, we explore his remarkable conversion after abandoning a highly successful legal career, the supernatural call that led him to the priesthood, his battle against Jansenism, his preaching on the Four Last Things, and his challenge for every Christian to give everything to God. St. Alphonsus reminds us that God does not ask us to compare ourselves with others. Instead, He asks us to faithfully use the gifts He has entrusted to us. In this sermon you'll learn: ✠ The conversion of St. Alphonsus Liguori ✠ Why he abandoned a successful legal career ✠ The founding of the Redemptorists ✠ The importance of preaching the Four Last Things ✠ Why fear and hope both move souls toward God ✠ His battle against Jansenism and spiritual rigorism ✠ His famous spiritual writings ✠ What it means to truly give your talents to God "If God has given you many talents, He desires that you use them completely for His glory."
