## Resource

In this recorded reflection on St. Mark’s Gospel, I encourage listeners to use their intellectual reasoning to deepen their understanding of religious faith. The homily analyzes a scriptural debate between Jesus and the Sadducees, who used a hypothetical scenario about a widow with seven husbands to argue against the resurrection. I explain that Jesus corrected their misunderstanding by revealing that life in heaven transcends earthly marriage and that God is the God of the living. By examining the divine and human natures of Christ, the commentary illustrates how a “healthy amount of doubt” and inquiry can lead to greater clarity. Ultimately, I emphasize that spiritual existence continues after death through an incorruptible soul that will one day be reunited with a glorified body.
