VIDEO: Introduction to the Pauline Year, by the Prelate of Opus Dei
The Opus Dei website will offer each month a video dedicated to Saint Paul and some of his teachings.
Professors from the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross will speak about marriage, work, identification with Christ, divine filiation, among other topics, in the writings of Saint Paul.
The Prelate of Opus Dei will introduce the series with a short video. Bishop Javier Echevarría sees this jubilee year as a “gift from the Holy Father” and expresses his desire that “all of us may assimilate more fully Christ’s teachings through the writings of the Apostle Saint Paul. We can draw a lot of fruit from reading his letters attentively and bringing them to our personal prayer.”
He also points to the influence Saint Paul had on Saint Josemaria, who “gave great importance to that affirmation of Saint Paul: mihi vivere Christus est, for me to live is Christ. That’s how he saw and lived his whole life.”
