This week, Rev. Brennan reflected on the nature of salvation, encouraging us to reconsider some of our long-held beliefs. Drawing inspiration from Pope Francis, who spoke about how different faiths can offer unique paths to understanding God, Rev. Brennan reminded us that God’s love and grace are vast and inclusive. He challenged us to think beyond our individual experiences and appreciate the richness of faith journeys that may be different from our own.

Continuing the theme of Near-Death Experiences (NDEs), Rev. Brennan pointed out that these powerful moments often reveal deeper truths about God’s presence and the universality of grace. By considering these broader perspectives, we are reminded that salvation is not confined to our limited understanding, but is an expression of God’s infinite love for all people.
