Fear of the Lord Leads
to the Love of the Sacred
-|-
Father Richard M. Heilman
How can we grow in reverence and devotion to the Holy Trinity? Father Richard Heilman shows us how the Fear of the Lord/Awe and Wonder can inspire us to seek the Sacred in everything. This lesson will help you deepen your relationship with God and discover the beauty of His presence.
INDIVIDUAL & SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
- How are some ways that temptation from the world, flesh, and the Devil has diminished our sense of the sacred in the world?
- The way by which Fr. Heilman describes the gift of ‘wisdom’; as being Awe and Wonder of God and Holy Fear of the Lord; are you operating in that gift right now?
- How do you feel when you witness irreverence or blasphemy towards Christ Jesus, the Blessed Mother, or our sacred places?
