5th Sunday of Lent (Ages 6-9): The Face of Mercy

Subscribe to the Better Part podcast today!

Gospel reflection for 6-9 year olds for the 5th Sunday of Lent, year C.

Adults, this is a difficult passage from the Gospels—for adults as well as children. In this reflection, I try to explain briefly why adultery is a sin, but focus mostly on the mercy of God—which is, I believe, the face of God the children need to see. If adultery has affected your family, please proceed carefully and gently with yourself and with your child. My prayers are with you.
