Series on Conversion by Fr Haggerty (2/8): Chapter 13
Remembering your sin can be uncomfortable. But it’s not about the sin — remembering your sin is remembering God’s mercy. It’s going back to Jesus’s presence at that moment, and to the way he changed it. Remembering that is the start of understanding your conversion more deeply, and to living your conversion more sustainably. A conversion based solely on feelings just doesn’t last. After all, we don’t graduate from being poor; from being one who is saved, from needing a savior. Being poor is a permanent posture of the disciple. There’s only one place our sin makes sense: at the foot of the cross. Take the crucifix off the wall and bring it close. Study it. Spend time with it. Make the sacrifice of Christ personal. Does his suffering matter to you?

God Is Looking for You
We have a God who’s always on the move, always pursuing. In our busyness, we’re distracted — we miss things. We miss people. But God is constantly seeking, constantly encountering what is broken, and seeing the wholeness. Christianity is different: it’s about God becoming Man and coming to us.

This Is My Beloved Son
Being a son means that you have a Father. The first and most important identity: son. This is the foundational identity that the Father gives us — everything else builds on this. We’re not talking about the Father as an idea or a concept. Because you can’t have…
