St. Mary Magdelene (22 July): She Loved Much Because She Was Forgiven Much

About this sermon

"She loved much because she was forgiven much." (Luke 7:47) On the Feast of St. Mary Magdalene, reflects on one of the Church's greatest examples of repentance, conversion, and love for Jesus Christ. Mary Magdalene, once known for her sinful life, became one of Christ's most faithful disciples. Standing faithfully beneath the Cross and becoming the first disciple to witness the Risen Lord, she was entrusted with announcing the Resurrection to the Apostles—earning her the title "Apostle to the Apostles." In this homily, Father explains the true meaning of Christ's words that Mary Magdalene "loved much because she was forgiven much." He warns against the dangerous misunderstanding that greater sin somehow leads to greater holiness. Instead, authentic Christian love grows through humility, repentance, gratitude, and receiving God's mercy. Drawing upon the Gospel of Luke and the example of St. Thérèse of Lisieux, this meditation encourages every Christian to deepen their love for Christ—not because of sin, but because of the infinite mercy of God. May St. Mary Magdalene obtain for us true repentance and an ever-growing love for Our Lord Jesus Christ.
