Kerygma: God Loves

In this video, we unpack the first element of the Kerygma: God the Father’s love for you.

These words are taken from Christus Vivit (Christ is Alive), Pope Francis' exhortation to young people.

"God loves you. It makes no difference whether you have already heard it or not. I want to remind you of it. God loves you. Never doubt this, whatever may happen to you in life. At every moment, you are infinitely loved.

Perhaps your experience of fatherhood has not been the best. Your earthly father may have been distant or absent, or harsh and domineering. Or maybe he was just not the father you needed. I don’t know.

But what I can tell you, with absolute certainty, is that you can find security in the embrace of your heavenly Father, of the God who first gave you life and continues to give it to you at every moment. He will be your firm support, but you will also realise that he fully respects your freedom."
