From Father Keating ...

  • "God is mystery - whatever we think or say about God misses the mark."
  • "Jesus says "Repent". Change the direction that we are looking for happiness. We can't find God when looking in wrong direction."
  • "God is very close to us. We can never be separated from Him. Even if we wish to."
  • "Job's story - where is God in all of Job's struggles? God shows up as the "Ultimate Reality" and Job experiences it. He's moved to a higher state of faith and love and is rewarded accordingly."
  • "The Gospel invites us to Union and Intimacy with God. God becomes human and one with us as family and individually The "word becomes flesh"."
