BELIEVE: A Lenten Study with Bishop Saenz - Fourth Sunday in Lent from John 9:34-38 "Who Is Jesus to You?"

March 19, 2023



In his reflection for the fourth Sunday in Lent, Bishop Saenz focuses on John 9:34-38 and the gospel writers account of Jesus healing a blind man with mud from the ground. As you reflect on how belief is formed in a man born blind through what he hears during his encounter with Jesus this week, Bishop Saenz also invites study participants to do two things...
  1. look closely at what's happening around you and try to "see" suffering the way Jesus saw the needs of a blind man sitting on the side of a street. Then focus your attention on a particular form of human suffering - homelessness; poverty, hunger, an unaddressed issue in your community, etc. - and resolve to address the needs of those in your path, and
  2. during your prayer time, ask yourself just who is Jesus to you.
