Reflecting on Jn 20:19-23 and the corresponding version of the story in Lk 24:13-49, Fr. Eric speaks about how we might find salvation in the wounded and risen Christ.

Topics include imaginative prayer, recognizing and finding consolation in the wounded and risen Christ, our intuitive and visceral reaction to the wounds of Christ. Fr. Eric speaks also about the capacity of beauty to bypass the mind and intellect, and the power of the wounded and risen Christ to stop us in our tracks and transform us to the core.

As a key illustration, Fr. Eric refers to S02 Ep. 17 of the Abiding Together Podcast ("You are So Beautiful to Me"), particularly an example from Sr. Miriam James Heidland regarding the Easter Vigil liturgy. Here's a link to the episode: https://www.abidingtogetherpodcast.com/podcastarchive/s09e17-you-are-so-beautiful-to-me.
